Initial Funding Year: FY 2003-2004

Art Contest!
Orange County students are invited to submit artwork for display in the new courthouse. The theme of the art contest is "Justice in California".

Overview
This new courthouse, currently under construction, will replace two leased facilities that the court has outgrown and will include:

  • Approximately 52,000 square feet of enclosed, secure space in three stories, designed to meet current Judicial Council standards;
  • Office suites for nine justices;
  • A courtroom, a settlement conference center, a law library, and work spaces for staff; and
  • A flexible design that can, with additional funding, expand to accommodate more court services.

In April 2005 the Judicial Council accepted the City of Santa Ana's terms of sale for this site. The city, at its expense, completed demolition and removal of a building on the site, razed the site to street level, and completed construction of a parking structure directly adjacent to the site, which provides approximately 70 additional parking spaces for the court's use.

Architects for the project are Carrier Johnson of San Diego and Costa Mesa. The construction manager and general contractor is Heery International/JCM Group.
