Court Security
Court security refers to the measures and protocols in place to ensure the safety of individuals within a courtroom and surrounding areas. This includes protecting judges, jurors, attorneys, and the public from potential threats or disruptions during legal proceedings. Security personnel, often including bailiffs and court officers, are responsible for maintaining order and enforcing rules.
To enhance safety, courts may employ various security technologies, such as metal detectors and surveillance cameras. Additionally, emergency response plans are established to address potential incidents, ensuring that everyone in the courtroom can respond effectively to any situation that may arise.
