By Judge Amber Luttrell, Jackson

Exciting news! We’re shaking it up (somewhat) in Jackson to better serve you.

After informal polling of attorneys who routinely appear for settlement approvals in Jackson, we’ve decided to switch our Tuesday approval day to Mondays. Friday approvals will continue as usual.

We realized that Tuesdays are very busy days for settlement approvals and mediations across the state. Attorneys informed us they have far fewer scheduling conflicts on Mondays.

As a result of this feedback, we’re pleased to announce that, beginning on August 6, Jackson’s settlement approval days will be Mondays and Fridays. The Court will continue to hear approvals from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. both days. As always, we’ll make every effort to accommodate requests for special settings on other days.
