 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDING JUSTICE

Welcome to the Rhode Island Superior Court website. The information published here is made available to you in order to increase awareness of the workings of the court system, particularly the Superior Court. An overview of the organization and operation of the Court is included.

Many interesting developments have taken place in the Superior Court over the last few years. The reduced term of service for jurors summoned for jury duty, the Court-Annexed Arbitration program, Gun Court, Drug Court, and the Business Calendar are examples of our efforts to increase efficiency in our judicial system and reduce spending.

It is important for every citizen to understand the legal system and the role it plays in our society. In addition to explaining trial procedures and guidelines, this website also provides a contact list for those requiring further information.

I hope you find this site to be both interesting and informative.

                                                        Sincerely,

                                                        Presiding Justice Joseph F. Rodgers, Jr.
