Court Notification Program

**Court Notifications are temporarily suspended as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic and related scheduling changes.**

Berks County Court implemented a mandatory electronic notification system designed to send out automatic electronic reminders to defendants of upcoming criminal court dates. Effective July 1, 2019, these reminders will be sent via text message or email as a courtesy and will not be considered official notice of any upcoming court date. The Administrative Order establishing this program can be found here. The Berks County Notification Intake Form is to be completed at the time of arraignment or waiver of arraignment.
