Rule 2.21 Twenty-First Circuit

Monongalia County holds its regular circuit court terms three times a year. These terms begin on the Thursday after the first Monday in January, May, and September.

A "term" is simply the court's official schedule for hearing cases and handling business during that part of the year. If you have a case in this circuit, the term dates can affect deadlines, scheduling, and when certain court actions take place. Knowing these dates helps you understand the court's calendar and when your case might be addressed.

If you're involved in a case in Monongalia County, it's a good idea to check with the court clerk or your attorney to see how these term dates apply to your specific situation.
