A small COVID-19 outbreak in some Blount County Justice Center offices has led to the closure of the walk-up desks for the Blount County Circuit Court and General Sessions Court, the Maryville Daily Times reports. Circuit Court Clerk Tom Hatcher said five people have contracted the virus and others are quarantining. Court clerks can still be reached by phone at 865-273-5400 or email, and there are drop-off boxes at the justice center. Courtroom proceedings have not been affected.
