The Kentucky courts are taking a day off today to cut down on costs.
Monday is the last of three furlough days the court system is taking this year in an effort to balance the budget.
It's the first time commonwealth judicial centers have had to close their doors since the modern court system was formed in 1976.
The shutdown includes not just the courts, but all drivers license branches across the state.
The Supreme Court will meet again early next year to determine whether more furlough days are necessary.
