History

Yuba County was one of the original counties formed in 1850 when California gained statehood.

1855 courthouse (photographed c.1905)

Court was originally held in a canvas structure erected at E and Third in 1850, containing a single room 20 by 30 feet (6.1 by 9.1 m) in size, and a second story used as a Masonic hall. The Court of Sessions appropriated US$6,000 (equivalent to $220,000 in 2023) to purchase the St. Charles Hotel at D and Third, allocating an additional US$500 to repair it with canvas partitions.[1]: 235  A permanent courthouse was completed in 1855, modeled after the United States Army Corps of Engineers logo, at D and Sixth with an estimated cost of US$45,000 (equivalent to $1,472,000 in 2023).[1]: 235  The 1855 courthouse was replaced by a new facility in 1962 and demolished in 1963.[2]

Court is currently held in the 1962 building.
