Effective Monday, April 14, 2025, judges of the Rivers State High Court will proceed on Easter break and return on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, when regular court sessions will resume.
Chief Judge of the State, Justice Simeon Chibuzor-Amadi, made the announcement on Thursday in Port Harcourt.
The decision follows the provisions of Order 49, Rule 4B of the High Court Civil Procedure Rules 2023, he said.
This was contained in an official statement, signed by the Chief Registrar of the Rivers State High Court, David Dahua-Maduenyi.
The statement, however, said that despite the break, a designated judge will be available to attend to urgent applications and matters during the period.
