Booking: Where People Arrested in Peachtree Corners Are Held

The jail's record of each person held, with the charges, is a public record of the arrest, and the court file takes over from there.

How to Find Out About an Arrest in Peachtree Corners
Whether someone was arrested in Peachtree Corners, and what came of it, shows up in two places: the case index of the Gwinnett County Superior Court, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date (the court records page SearchSystems verified is at gwinnettcourts.com/casesearch, phone 770-619-6100); the District Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at gwinnettcounty.com/government/departments/district-attorney, phone 770.822.8400).
Georgia is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: Georgia Felon Search lets anyone check felony convictions online by name, through the Georgia Crime Information Center. That record shows what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.
