The new Orange County Courthouse in Winter Park is officially open and ready to serve residents.
Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings, Orange County Clerk of Courts Tiffany Moore Russell, and Chief Judge Lisa T. Munyon and other local officials recently participated in the ribbon cutting for the new Courthouse branch in Winter Park. This new location marks a significant milestone as it will provide a larger, state-of-the-art facility to serve the community better, according to officials.
The Winter Park branch relocated to serve residents, now open at the new Orange County Courthouse in Winter Park at 4037 Metric Drive.
Located just off University Boulevard near Goldenrod Road, the new Orange County Courthouse at Winter Park is three times the size of the current courthouse branch and is the result of an $18.9 million investment by Orange County Government. The expanded space will house two courtrooms, a larger wedding ceremony room, and a larger waiting area to ensure a more comfortable experience for all visitors.
“This courthouse represents the continued investment in our community’s future,” said Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings. “The $18.9 million investment in this state-of-the-art facility will ensure that residents in Winter Park and surrounding areas have improved access to courts, legal resources, and services for years to come.”
“We are thrilled to introduce the new Courthouse in Winter Park to the community,” said Orange County Clerk of Courts Tiffany Moore Russell. “This new facility reflects our ongoing commitment to provide better access to justice and exceptional service to our residents.”
“This is an important step for the Orange County judicial system,” said Ninth Judicial Circuit Court Chief Judge Lisa Munyon. “We will be able to take advantage of the high-tech courtroom design, which will allow court hearings to be held in-person and remotely. This will help cases to be heard and resolved quickly and efficiently.”
The new courthouse will offer Clerk Office branch location services, including marriage licenses and ceremonies, passport processing, and a Self-Help Center with an attorney consultation room for legal consultations.
