A new mask requirement went into effect yesterday in Washington County sessions court, which includes civil, juvenile and Tennessee Highway Patrol matters, News Channel 11 reports. “In response to a rise in COVID-19 numbers, Judges Robert Lincoln, Don Arnold and Janet Hardin are requesting all parties wear masks while in their courtrooms,” Washington County Communications Director Susan Saylor said in an email. The mask requirement does not extend to other courts inside the George Jaynes Justice Center or other county offices.
