Which Agency Holds a Report from Lilburn
The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.
Inside Lilburn that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Lilburn Police Department); outside it, the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the State Patrol at Lawrenceville in Gwinnett County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries Gwinnett County Public Schools (other agency) and Georgia Gwinnett College and Gwinnett Technical College (campus police), each with a records office of its own.
The Auburn Police Department, the Doraville Police Department, the Loganville Police Department and one more are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Gwinnett County, so their arrests are not broken out for Gwinnett County here.

What the Georgia Open Records Act Requires
Under the Georgia Open Records Act the agency must answer a request within 3 business days, and it may charge for search, retrieval and copying after the first quarter hour. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at gwinnettcounty.com/government/departments/communications/media-rela... (page title: Gwinnett County Open Records Requests | Gwinnett County | Gwinnett).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, 770.822.8400, handles discovery for pending cases.
