Supreme Court Justice Fabiana Pierre-Louis will preside over a naturalization ceremony with Assignment Judge Jeanne T. Covert for 17 Burlington County residents at 10 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 3 in the Historic Courthouse, 120 High St., Mount Holly.

“We are honored to have Burlington’s own Justice Fabiana Pierre-Louis as our host for the naturalization ceremony, which will be held in person once again.

Remarks will be delivered by Justice Pierre-Louis as well as First Assistant Burlington County Prosecutor Brenda Román-Maneri, who also is president of the Burlington County Bar Association.  

Superior Court Judge Gerard Breland will close the ceremony by singing America the Beautiful.
