- The coronavirus pandemic has begun to impact the U.S. court system, halting civil and criminal jury trials in high-profile venues such as Manhattan’s federal court and delaying a $1 billion trial against Elon Musk that was slated to begin Monday.
“It’s all happening at the speed of light,” said Eric Tennen, a criminal defense lawyer in Massachusetts. “It’s just crazy. I don’t know what’s what anymore.”Federal and state courts from Massachusetts to Washington have postponed trials and grand jury proceedings or banned visitors from countries with large outbreaks.
A union representing federal immigration judges, who have a huge backlog of cases, on Thursday asked the Trump administration to suspend all mass scheduling hearings, which can draw hundreds of people from around the world to their courts daily. Organizations that represent defendants in New York have called for the release of prisoners who are older, pregnant or have respiratory conditions, and an end to detaining defendants for administrative reasons, such as missed court dates.A $1 billion non-jury trial over Tesla chief executive Elon Musk’s purchase of SolarCity that was slated to begin in Delaware on Monday was postponed indefinitely.
