General Information
For the convenience of attorneys visiting the courthouse on a regular basis, an identification card, now called a "Secure Pass" can be obtained which will expedite the entry process.
Original Applications & Renewals
In order to obtain a Secure Pass, attorneys must complete an application (available at the office of the Supreme and County Court Chief Clerk - 3rd floor of the Courthouse/County Court Building -- Room 214)
The Application Process Requires
- completion of section a of the Secure Pass attorney application (UCS-334) along with $25.00 and
- two forms of photo id such as a currently valid driver's license, passport, government or employer-issued photo id (A current OCA issued attorney id is valid) and
