The Courts That Hear Cases from Mitchell County
Court cases from Mitchell County are filed in the Mitchell County Superior Court, which hears felonies, divorces, land title cases and civil cases without a dollar limit.
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.

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.
