Justice Juanita Kidd Stout Center for Criminal Justice

The Justice Juanita Kidd Stout Center for Criminal Justice (formerly the Criminal Justice Center or CJC), is the main criminal courthouse for the First Judicial District of Pennsylvania, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The CJC is a 17-story steel-framed building completed in 1994 in order to alleviate pressure from courtrooms located in Philadelphia City Hall. The center is located at 1301 Filbert Street.

In May 2012, the Criminal Justice Center was renamed in honor of the late Justice Juanita Kidd Stout.[1]
