Start the review with public entity liability.
For Courts, the saved research highlights public entity liability, premises liability, employee injuries. Confirm how these arise in the actual operation, what controls are used and whether additional services change the proposed coverage.
Questions to ask
- Is this a standalone court operation or combined with an active sheriff's office, jail, or detention facility?
- What is the annual budget and employee headcount — important for sizing public entity programs?
- Is the court currently insured through a public risk pool or self-insurance trust, or seeking commercial market coverage?
- What is the prior claims history, particularly any civil rights or wrongful detention matters?
- Does the courthouse include on-site holding cells or short-term detention facilities?
- Are court records and case management systems fully digital, and what cybersecurity controls are in place?
- For Courts, what should the underwriter know about prior civil rights litigation or pattern of excessive force / wrongful detention claims?
- For Courts, what should the underwriter know about courthouse facilities with significant deferred maintenance or known premises hazards?

Civilian courts of law conduct judicial proceedings including trials, hearings, sentencing, and administrative functions at fixed courthouse facilities. Operations typically involve public access, security personnel, court officers, and management of detained or in-custody individuals in holding areas. Sheriff's offices performing court functions — such as courtroom security and prisoner transport — may also fall under this classification.
