SURROGATES COURT NASSAU COUNTY

From the Nassau County Bar Association:

"The Surrogates Court is on the cusp of converting to a new computer system, a conversion mandated by OCA. Consequently, there will be necessary disruptions in the court's schedule in the coming months.

From Monday, February 22 through Friday, March 5, the court will be open and receiving papers but will not be able to use our computers. OCA will use this time to do their computer work on the transition from our current system to the new system "UCMS." We will put a mechanism in place to deal with emergency needs for orders to show cause, certificates, etc.

From Monday, March 8 through Friday, March 19, the court will be closed. This will be the time when the actual conversion and training of staff will take place. We have not yet been told how we can accommodate emergency requests or applications, but I am sure that we will be able to do so. For more info contact Michael P. Ryan, Esq. mryan@courts.state.ny.us - 516-571-2082."
