The relocation is necessary to allow extensive essential maintenance work to be carried out on the building.

All Family and Youth business will move to Coleraine Courthouse and all other business to Omagh Courthouse. However, public counter services will be maintained at Londonderry Courthouse throughout the closure of the courts.

“The health and safety of court users is paramount and the patience and co-operation of the judiciary, legal professionals, staff and the public during this time is greatly appreciated.”

Those affected by changes to listings due to the relocation will be notified by letter.
