Dade Criminal Guilty Pleas Scheduled For April 2nd Will Now Start at 1 pm.
2024 Calendar (Updated 3/25/24)
Okay, at this point I recommend simply re-printing this calendar. There are enough changes to warrant this.
WebEx v. Zoom
The LMJC uses WebEx as its preferred, secure means of conducting Court remotely. As such, we do not email links but will provide a Meeting Room Number as a means of logging into the system. We use a WebEx Spark system and since this is a peer-to-peer platform, someone from our end will allow entrance into the meeting at the appropriate time.
Zoom can be used for meetings that are typically not conducted in the Courtrooms that have the WebEx Spark system. At that time, Judges or their representatives will send out links to allow logging into the Zoom meetings.
Catoosa Clerk’s Office
Tracy Brown has informed me that the Web Search will be down for upgrades for 6-8 weeks. You’ll be able to see data but not images.
“Peachcourt will have the documents available but my office will assist in helping get the copies to the individuals who have the paid service with my office. The link below will be how to access the data.”

Per Chief Judge Graham, attorneys ARE REQUIRED to use the State Form when filing TPOs. This email might explain this better.

Mediation Order
Exhibit A
Notice To Attorneys
If you need a court reporter for a hearing on Zoom or WebEx, it is your responsibility to let the Judge know ahead of time. Zoom or WebEx recordings are not part of the record.
Speaking of Zoom and WebEx
The LMJC will continue to utilize both Zoom and WebEx, at the discretion of the judges. If you wish to have a hearing with one of our judges, please contact their office to discuss filing a request. Zoom is available for download here. Choose Zoom Client For Meetings.
If you’re using WebEx, download from this site.

Reminder About Efiling
When attorneys efile divorce cases, some are not including the report of divorce form that is required to be sent to the State of Georgia when the case is final. PeachCourt has a report of divorce proceeding that can be used when uploading the case for initial filing. This form must be included when the case is final. This report is also required if you bring the final order to the Clerk’s office.
