Miami-Dade courthouse closes for repairs due to safety concerns after condo collapse

Miami-Dade County Courthouse employees were told to work from home Friday after safety concerns were identified with the building, CBS Miami reports. 

"Out of an abundance of caution in response to the tragedy in Surfside, Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava and Miami-Dade Courts administrators asked engineers to conduct an assessment of all County buildings at the recertification point including the Dade County Courthouse," county officials said. "The engineer's report of the Courthouse identified safety concerns with various floors and recommended floors 16 and above to be closed to staff."
