PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

This two story courts facility will accommodate Circuit Court on the first floor and District Court on the second.  Each court will consist of an 1,800 SF jury trial courtroom, jury deliberation suite, offices for the Clerk of Court, judges chambers, and courts staff offices.  The first floor also includes a 500 SF conference / law library that will double as a juvenile hearing room, 2,700 SF office suite for the County Attorney, and public entry lobby.

Both courtrooms are connected to the Detention Center via an at grade inmate movement corridor, with secure holding areas provided directly adjacent to each.
