Suffolk County Courthouse Closed For Bunker Hill Day

Since County Criminal records are one of the key background checks for any employer conducting preemployment screening, we like to keep you aware of any court closures, delays  or changes in court procedures.   We found this article interesting as the holiday pertains to one of the early battled fought during the American Revolution.  In fact it was reported that the very quote, “Don’t shoot until you see the whites of their eyes,” was attributed to William Prescott, a colonial officer, at the Battle of Bunker Hill.

In honor of that day, please read the following–

SUFFOLK COUNTY, MA COURTS CLOSED JUNE 17, 2010 FOR BUNKER HILL DAY

Suffolk County Superior Court, Suffolk County District Courts and  Boston Municipal Court will be closed June 17, 2010 for Bunker Hill Day.

Bunker Hill Day commemorates the battle at Breed’s Hill and neighboring Bunker Hill, which took place on June 17, 1775 during the Siege of Boston. Though the British won the battle, they did so at a massive cost and without lifting the American siege.
