Federal courts and justice: Justice will continue to be served.
The court system said it will remain open for business for approximately 10 business days in the event of a shutdown.
It's able to do so on the basis of fees and funds from prior appropriations, according to an earlier report from the Congressional Research Service.
All court proceedings and deadlines will remain in effect unless otherwise advised. The judiciary said it will reassess its funding capacity on or around Oct. 15.
