Access for Individuals with Disabilities

The Court normally requires at least 5 working days advance notification in order to provide an accommodation. If you are in need of an accommodation due to a disability please complete the form MC-410, Request for Accommodations by Persons With Disabilities and Response, and return the completed form to the Court’s ADA Coordinator via:

Fax: (530) 289-0205

Mail: PO Box 476, Downieville, CA 95936

Or you may contact the Court by phone at (530) 289-3698.
