The East County Hall of Justice was closed earlier today due to a power outage and the failure of a backup generator.
The Alameda County Superior Court announced the closure in a press release this morning.
The power outage forced the court to postpone all criminal hearings and appearances until later this afternoon, with some of the proceedings being relocated to the Rene C. Davidson Courthouse in Oakland.
Traffic matters have been relocated to the Fremont Hall of Justice.
