Lunar New Year, Genocide Remembrance Day, Admission Day, and Columbus Day are not observed (Code of Civil Procedure, Section 135). Good Friday is a State holiday which is observed from noon until 3:00 p.m. pursuant to Government Code, Section 6700. However, since the Good Friday observance does not constitute a full day as required by Code of Civil Procedure, Section 135, it does not constitute a judicial holiday and will not be observed as such.
Pursuant to California Rules of Court, Rule 1.11, when a judicial holiday specified by Code of Civil Procedure, Section 135 falls on Sunday, the courts shall observe the holiday on the following Monday. When a judicial holiday specified by Code of Civil Procedure, Section 135 falls on a Saturday, the courts shall observe the holiday on the preceding Friday.
