Effective December 14, 2020, Kern County’s Probate Courtroom (Division P) will be adding Zoom as a method of appearance. Due to the recent spread of COVID-19, the court encourages litigants to participate in hearings virtually through available software/applications. Court Call is also encouraged. Parties without access to a computer, tablet, or smart phone, may dial in.
