If you are going to this court for your naturalization ceremony, don't forget to bring a book to read. Your phone and other electronic devices will be taken away for 3-4 hours, at least.

Was here for jury duty. No liquids allowed to be brought into the building, for security reasons. Don't bring drinks, they will make you throw it out in the wastebasket outside the building. Water and soft drinks are available for sale inside the building. They also have a cafeteria on the 3rd floor. The waiting room is nice. Bring along reading material. The wait can be very long. Cell phones are checked in at the lobby and tablet computers with cameras are not allowed.

I had to call to ask a question for one of my bosses (I work for attorneys) and I had to deal with THE RUDEST man I have EVER spoken to in my life. He couldn't have been more condescending. Hope you feel good about yourself - a grown man yelling at a young lady for asking a question ON SOMEONE ELSE'S BEHALF.

My citizenship ceremony took approx. 4 hours, with the actual ceremony only 5 min or so and the rest of the time is spent sitting and waiting. Be prepared for your phones to be taken away in the lobby, so you cannot use that to alleviate the boredom. Bring a book. The staff was professional and the facilities are nice. Their process really needs work though, someone should really evaluate and optimize it, so hundreds of people aren't kept waiting for so long.

Beautiful, clean, well managed, well secured, Nice staff,
Court room needs some upgrades they should have TV's to show maybe something about american history or other states to visit or at least some magazines in front of sitting arrangements.
How do you expect people to sit for four hours without electronic devices.
Seating was pretty uncomfortable and then they keep telling you to squeeze so more people can fit and sit tight. Like why would you invite people more than court room sitting capacity and then tell people to squeeze more.

I was here to request for a certified document. The staff in the office was not very helpful. He couldn't provide specific procedure on how to obtain the document that was originally issued by this court. Mobile phones are not allowed inside the court building, so I went in and out the building 4 times to make phone calls and enquiries to a foreign consulate. Back in the office, at the end he said he couldn't process the order because the cash register is now closed. I will have to come back another day for this document request. Overall the staff doesn't show any willingness to assist visitors.
Suggestion: Be well prepared with all specific questions you may potentially have.

Update: The office stuff are absolutely clueless on their work procedure. I received a phone call this morning and were told to come back for the document. When arrive they ask me to show them another document that was not mentioned during the call. This office is very inefficient and staff is incompetent. I'm very disappointed that they can't even serve people with simple task such as issuing document.
