Coronavirus (COVID-19): Justice system measures

Because of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Ministère de la Justice du Québec implemented a series of measures to protect the health of the public and the people working in the justice system.
In this section, you will find:

• answers for frequently asked questions by citizens and law professionals
• information on access to courthouses and maintained judicial services
• official communications by the Ministère de la Justice du Québec and its partners during the pandemic.

If you have a question about the services provided by the Ministère de la Justice, in particular in courthouses, you should contact the Centre de communication avec la clientèle (CCC) at 1 866 536-5140.

A telephone hotline offering free legal assistance is also in operation to answer your questions about your rights and obligations during the pandemic.
