Security tipped the scales of justice as Northampton County has decided to add a new court to handle certain preliminary hearings, President Judge Michael Koury said Monday.
In an administrative order issued Friday, Koury said Central Court will debut July 6 in Courtroom 4 in the Northampton County Courthouse in Easton for all such hearings involving incarcerated people or those out on bail.
