Court Services operates from 9am to 5pm, Monday through Friday. The court office is closed while court is in session. Paying Citations: If you wish to pay a citation in lieu of appearing in court, you must do so in person by noon the business day prior to your court date. For your convenience, we accept Visa and Mastercard.
Resetting your Court Date: If you would like to reset your court date for a later date, you must contact the Clerk of Court at least 48 hours prior to your assigned court date.
Change of Address: O.C.G.A. § 40-5-33 mandates that drivers must update their address with the Georgia Department of Motor Vehicle Safety within 60 days of moving. If the address on your license or citation is outdated, it is your responsibility to notify the Clerk of Court of the correct address. Notices sent to an incorrect address will not constitute an excuse for non-compliance.
THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT APPEARING IN COURT - All phones and pagers should be turned off or silenced. Any disruption of those devices in Court may lead to a fine, a charge of Contempt of Court, and/or resetting of your case.
- Hats and non-prescription sunglasses may not be worn in the Court Room.
- Upon entering the Court Room, you should receive a "Plea Sheet." This sheet explains your rights and must be completed/signed before your case will be heard.
- Persons sentenced to a fine of less than $200 are not eligible for Probation unless specifically authorized by the Judge.
