Criminal Defense Attorney for Hart County
Hart County
The Hart County Sheriff’s Office and Georgia State Patrol regularly patrol and aggressively enforce traffic laws on the vehicles that travel through Hart County along local highways. This traffic law enforcement in the form of traffic stops oftentimes leads to seizures of individuals and searches of vehicles as law enforcement investigates for crimes such as DUI and felony drug possession.
Most Hart County DUI cases start in the Probate Court of Hart County, in the city of Hartwell. However, an individual charged in the Probate Court of Hart County has the right to transfer their DUI alcohol, DUI drugs, or DUI prescription medications case to the Superior Court of Hart County to demand a jury trial.
In either a DUI case where a jury trial is requested, a non-traffic misdemeanor offense, such as domestic violence, or a felony offense, such as drug possession, drug possession with intent to distribute, drug trafficking, or vehicular homicide, the case is handled in the Superior Court of Hart County. The Superior Court of Hart County is located in the downtown Hartwell courthouse at 185 W. Franklin Street. Prosecution for DUIs in the Probate Court of Hart County and for all charges in the Superior Court of Hart County are handled by the District Attorney of Hart County, who has a local office in Hartwell. Hart County shares a DA with Oglethorpe County, Madison County, Franklin County, and Elbert County.
