The Miller County Courthouse will close at 2 p.m. Friday, November 5, in order to install new equipment for the 911 emergency dispatching system. County Judge Hubert Easley said electricity to the courthouse will need to be turned off during the installation process, forcing the closure of business offices. The Miller County Sheriff's Department will remain open and existing emergency phone services will continue to operate during the maintenance procedure. Several courthouse personnel will be available to direct those unaware of the scheduled closure, Easley said. Normal courthouse operations will resume Monday.
