The Florida Supreme Court has issued an order that outlines guidelines that must be followed within the state court system amid the coronavirus pandemic. The order comes as the Florida Department of Health confirms more cases of the COVID-19 in two South Florida counties Thursday.

The order, issued by Florida Supreme Court Chief Justice Charles Canady, follows the state of emergency declared by Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday. That has caused the Supreme Court in an “abundance of caution” to increase its prevention measures.
