Please refer to your payment/contempt notice for due dates and balance information.

Due to the confidential nature of Juvenile Court records, the Clerk's Office staff is prohibited from providing case information to most members of the public who are not parties to the case and cannot provide any information over the phone, even to parties. If you are a party to a case, please bring current picture identification (driver's license, state issued identification, military identification, etc.) into the office to request copies of filings.
 

If your order is not yet filed in the Clerk's Office, staff will request a copy of the order from the attorney, however, the Clerk's Office has no control over when they are filed and cannot provide a specific date when it will be filed.

The simple answer is no. Judges are prohibited ex-parte communications. You should request a hearing on a pending motion, or file the appropriate motion, if you would like to speak to the Judge.

Please contact the Clerk's Office at 706-225-4290 to discuss the sealing of records.

If you need a copy of a juvenile legal history, the child or the parent/legal guardian will need to come to the office to request the information. The child or the parent/legal guardian must bring a picture ID. The parent must be listed in our system as being the parent or we may not legally release any documentation. There is a $1.00 per page fee associated with the legal history.
