Provide a listing of the days in the coming year that the court will take a holiday.
In the United States, there are 10 federal holidays set by law:
Under current definitions, four are set by date:
New Year's Day | January 1 |
Independence Day | July 4 |
Veterans Day | November 11 |
Christmas Day | December 25 |
If any of the above fall on a Saturday, then Friday may be observed as a holiday by various institutions. Similarly, if one falls on Sunday, then Monday may be observed as a holiday.
The other six are set by a day of the week and month:
Martin Luther King's Birthday | Third Monday in January |
Washington's Birthday | Third Monday in February |
Memorial Day | Last Monday in May |
Labor Day | First Monday in September |
Columbus Day | Second Monday in October |
Thanksgiving | Fourth Thursday in November |
FEDERAL HOLIDAY TABLE: When a holiday falls on a nonworkday -- Saturday or Sunday -- the holiday is usually observed on Monday (if the holiday falls on Sunday) or Friday (if the holiday falls on Saturday).
