When the courthouse of any county is damaged or destroyed or is undergoing repair so as to interfere with the sittings of the courts or the occupancy of offices therein, such courts may sit and such offices may be kept at such other place in the city, town, or village where such courts and offices are required by law to be held and kept as may be provided by the county commission, or, in case of an emergency, such place as may be provided by the judge of probate, sheriff, and clerk of the circuit court.
