US EditionFuture of 2 Upstate federal courthouses uncertain
- Two federal courthouses in Spartanburg and Anderson are set to be sold by the Trump administration as part of cost-cutting measures, which could save over $430 million annually for taxpayers.
- Operations from these courthouses would move to the Carroll A. Campbell Federal Courthouse in Greenville, potentially increasing delays in judicial proceedings due to a backlog of over 12,000 federal cases in South Carolina.
- Local officials, including Spartanburg County Councilman David Britt, oppose the sale, arguing it contradicts community needs and could mean longer wait times for cases.
- Anderson County Administrator Rusty Burns stated that the county deserves to keep its federal courthouse for public service and does not want it repurposed.
