The global tech disruption is having an impact on operations at the Los Angeles County Superior Court and temporarily limiting inmate bookings in San Diego County. The Los Angeles Superior Court has reported significant system-wide connectivity issues that are affecting the Court's ability to conduct business. As a result, hearings with parties expecting to appear remotely will be rescheduled to address the situation.

In San Diego, jail bookings were briefly limited as department officials implemented backup systems to manage the disruption. The San Diego County Sheriff expressed gratitude for the swift resolution of the challenges, attributing it to the exceptional teamwork of professionals in the Sheriff's Data Services and Detentions Processing Divisions. These individuals collaborated closely with the Sheriff's Communications Center, patrol, and detentions deputies to ensure that essential services were not interrupted during the incident.
