Rome, Georgia, in Floyd County, has about 39,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate).

This guide says which court hears what, where to look a case up and who keeps the files.

The Courts That Hear Cases from Rome
Court cases from Rome are filed in the Floyd County Superior Court, which hears felonies, divorces, land title cases and civil cases without a dollar limit.
Below it, the State Court and Magistrate Court take misdemeanors and traffic cases in the State Court where the county has one, otherwise in the Probate Court; small claims and warrants in the Magistrate Court.
A city with a municipal court of its own tries the tickets written under its ordinances.
Divorces go to the Superior Court, and the file stays with the Clerk of Superior Court.
The Clerk of Superior Court keeps the files, and a copy of anything in a file comes from that office, under the court's own rules rather than the Georgia Open Records Act.
