This is not enough information. How many floors is the courthouse? What's the scale conversion? 1inch = how many feet?


Usually a general rule of thumb is 1 floor = 10 ft. Courthouses can vary from 2 floors all the way to 20 floors or more. There is no way to convert if we do not have the amount of floors and conversion ratio.
