Global Tech Outage Disrupts New York State Courts, In-Person Operations Remain Stable


The tech outage roiling industries across the globe on Friday also impacted the New York State Unified Court System. Employees statewide experienced software issues, rendering their desktop systems inoperative.

“Court employees arrived at work to find their desktop systems were inaccessible,” a source told the New York Law Journal. However, an Office of Court Administration spokesperson noted there were no significant disruptions to in-person courthouse operations so far.
