     WWW.JUDGEBRYANT.COM HAS SHUT DOWN    

After 10 years and nearly 400,000 web site hits, I have decided to cease operation of www.judgebryant.com. I am now within 6 months of my retirement from the bench and it has become necessary for me to focus my free time and energy on anticipated post-retirement endeavors. I apologize for the abruptness of this announcement. I tried to find a time to shut down the site when Judge Walker's and Judge Vanhook's civil terms wouldn't be disrupted, but there just isn't such a time. 

I have enjoyed operating the site over the last decade and hope that it has been of some benefit to those who have visited. The end of the web site also means the end of a number of features on the site. These will cease immediately.

• Electronic Calendar Call ^© - Unfortunately, this will also include the electronic calendar calls for Judge Walker and Judge Vanhook. I can't speak for them, but intend to return to the old-fashioned, in court, Monday morning calendar calls for my few remaining civil terms.
  
  

• Online Jury Excuses ^© - I will no longer be entertaining jury excuses online. You will need to report to the court as directed in your summons to secure a jury excuse or deferral.
  
  

• E-signed Orders/Judgments - While this isn't directly tied to t he web site, since I am shutting the site down to free up some time, I will immediately cease "e-signing" orders and judgments. If you sent an order/judgment to me for "e-signature" prior to June 1, 2010, I will e-sign and return it to you.
  
  

• Online Continuances ^© - As with the calendar call and jury excuses, online continuances for traffic/criminal cases will no longer be available.
  

The maintenance of the web site over the years required sifting through a significant amount of information. That site maintenance would have been impossible without the assistance of many of you who sent new, updated, or corrected information that allowed me to keep the site as current and accurate as possible. I am grateful for your contribution.

Just for fun, I have left the Forum open for a while longer. I'm not sure when it will disappear.
