An electrical fire that broke out in the basement of the St. Tammany Parish Justice Center last week, causing flooding when the sprinkler system went off.
Some services will be restricted while the damage is repaired, according to Clerk of Court Melissa Henry.
The Clerk of Court office was closed on Friday, but it will provide limited services today at the Justice Center on the first floor of the courthouse.
The basement will be closed for the first part of the week for repairs, and staff members who normally work in the basement have been temporarily moved to the first floor and the elections office.
Henry said that clerks and other staffers worked through the weekend to make the moves.
Those who need land records and personal documents should contact the Clerk of Court’s office in Slidell, on the fifth floor of the Towers Building.
