To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Law Day, the Hawai‘i State Judiciary will offer public tours of the Kaua‘i court complex on Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Visitors may tour the new customer service center, cellblock, a judicial chamber and other areas of the courthouse not usually open to the public.
The Judiciary is sponsoring various activities throughout the state in support of Law Day, which is celebrated nationwide each year on or around May 1.
The Legal Aid Society, Drug Court, and Kaua‘i Economic Opportunity will have informational displays in the courthouse lobby. Refreshments will be available and each visitor will receive a free Law Day commemorative gift.
Located at 3970 Ka‘ana St. in Lihu‘e, the courthouse is named Pu‘uhonua Kaulike, which means “Sanctuary of Justice” in Hawaiian.
The building opened its doors on Aug. 22, 2005, and is the Judiciary’s newest facility.
