This courthouse is a beautiful example of government interaction with the people "back in the day."…read more The Courthouse Square was once the center of community. It portrays a time when government was more accessible to the people, and people were more a part of government decisions. I love seeing these old courthouses. Many of them have lost their surroundings, but this one still has buildings around it. It makes for a living downtown area, heartening back to yesteryear. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

The place is pretty easy to find and parkinng was definitely not the worst. The Good: This is the first time in my life when I went to a courthouse and it was a fairly enjoyable experience. Its spacious on the inside, well kept, secure, and modern. The most unexpected thing there was that everyone was really friendly and helpful. Not one person there from the security to the parking garage attendant seemed disgruntled. I went there to have my fingerprints taken and I had made an appointment online. Not only was the lady at the window and the lady who did my prints very friendly, but I was actually seen on time! Unbelievable. Friendly staff AND timely service at a government facility? That's new to me. If you have a choice of courthouses in the area, I would recommend this one. Plus some nice local shops are close by if yo u have to wait for someone or something, you can grab a nice coffee or whatever. The Bad: You have yo pay for parking. $2 for the first hour and $1 for every additional hour up to $10 max.

Never thought I'd be writing a review about a courthouse but here we are…read more I had the privilege of sitting in the courtroom of Judge Pendergrass for a traffic violation. With everything going on in the world and people losing faith in our justice system my experience today gave me a little faith in humanity. Judge Pendergrass is the kindest, most disarming and fair judge I have ever seen, onscreen or off. Many in the room were nervous, tense before walking up to the podium. Even if they were handed heavy fines or judgement, they walked away relieved. He speaks to everyone with kindness and asks about their lives. One man had a one year old son and he talked to him about how exciting it must be sharing their first Christmas. He gave him extra time to pay off his ticket so he could get something nice for his son. At a stressful moment in everyone's lives, the demeanor of this judge is hopeful and heartwarming. Thanks for reinstalling some faith in our justice system. Judge Pendergrass truly is honorable.

She allowed me to explain my reasoning for the date change and asked me to allow her to go and speak with the judge/magistrate to see what the possibilities were. I have to give a huge thank you to you and your staff for making my visit so pleasurable. You didn't make me feel like I was bothering you or your colleagues at all. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

Like standing in line at a bank and I had only 3 people ahead of me. First window is the DA, who took my info and dismissed the case. Then I slid over to the next window, where the clerk noted the dismissal on record. Then I left! Whole thing done in 20 minutes, and I was even able to park for free in their lot. Good experience and hopefully don't have to go again!

The video played for us was a bunch of nonsense, as we're a constitutional republic not a democracy. How do I trust the system when the system can't even get it right? This is humiliation no human should endure by any court system. So disrespectful, rude, & harsh environment! Less a confession, my vote will be not guilty simply bc of how ive been treated today. No person should suffer the system.
