Due to the inclement weather, the DC Courts will be operating under a condensed schedule beginning at 2:00 pm. Judicial Officers will determine if court proceedings will continue. Statutory courts will remain operational.
The interest rate on judgments is five percent (5%) for the calendar quarter beginning January, 1 2026 (DC Code §28-3302(c)).
