Magisterial District Office
Is a Magisterial District office a prohibited carry place? I received a traffic citation the other day and the cop advised me I had to go to the office in person to find out how much the fee would be, it wasn’t sure if this was considered a courtroom facility and carry prohibited?

Re: Magisterial District Office
Yes it is. The definition of a Court Facility is as follows, straight from the statute:
"Court facility."The courtroom of a court of record; a courtroom of a community court;the courtroom of a magisterial district judge; a courtroom of the Philadelphia Municipal Court; a courtroom of the Pittsburgh Magistrates Court; a courtroom of the Traffic Court of Philadelphia; judge's chambers; witness rooms; jury deliberation rooms; attorney conference rooms; prisoner holding cells; offices of court clerks, the district attorney, the sheriff and probation and parole officers; and any adjoining corridors.
Here's the whole section:

Will they have storage facilities as required by the statute? Probably not.

Re: Magisterial District Office
Actually, the MDJ has very little say over the issue. The person you have to go after is the county's Court Administrator. Might even require a Writ of Mandamus to get it enforced. Of course, if the county administrators don't give the court administrator the funding for such........
