The 23rd District Recovery Court has been meeting via Zoom during the pandemic, but last Thursday, participants returned "home" to the Dickson County Courthouse for a “near-normal” drug court docket, according to Drug Court Director Kevin Batts. Circuit and Drug Court Judge Suzanne Lockert-Mash told participants "Although we've continued to operate well during this pandemic, nothing compares to seeing each of you in person every week." The first in-person meeting comes after months of meeting online and at individual Sober Living Residences. Participants and court staff practiced social distancing and wore face masks, Batts told TBA.
