The recently completed Plymouth Trial Court is a state-of-the-art facility containing Superior, District, Juvenile, Housing and Probate & Family court departments. The facility also contains a Law Library, space for a day care center, and jury pool accommodations. The five court departments have relocated from three separate existing, outdated facilities in downtown Plymouth, providing improved conditions and capacity for future growth in this fast-growing region of the state. The new location on Obery Street near Rt. 24 will provide easy access by automobile and through bus service and is convemiently located next to the recently completed Plymouth County Registry of Deeds. The co-location of all five court departments will improve the efficiency of the court process by promoting the use of shared facilities and services.
