Georgia official directory

The e-access table linked 168 superior or state rows to this PeachCourt account URL on 2026-10-01, covering 123 superior-court counties and 45 state-court rows. The opened page was a sign-in form. Its own text describes civil and criminal e-filing. A criminal case-search form was not shown. Which signed-in screens search criminal cases was not established.

• No public search form was visible before sign-in.
• Vendor text on the landed page is about e-filing, which is not the same as the judiciary's search sentence.
• Not magistrate, municipal, probate, or juvenile coverage.
• No account was created and no name was submitted.

The Judicial Gateway links some superior and state rows to re:SearchGA. On 2026-10-01 the vendor page required an eFileGA sign-in before any search. The View participating counties control listed 25 county names. A different section, headed “Search across multiple Georgia counties at once,” said search covers 18 counties and spelled Gwinnett as Gwinett. No text on the pages opened in this check said the 18 and the 25 are different court types, different dates, or different participation categories. That difference is unresolved and is not the same count as the package’s usable-referral metric (19 after the Tennessee visitation referral was added). The participating-county list does not state court class or criminal-record access. The e-access table is a separate directory and does not point every one of those 25 counties’ rows at this host. The integrated-courts URL did not render a county list on 2026-10-01. On 2026-10-07 an unauthenticated HTTP GET to the vendor home returned HTTP 403 from the load balancer, so the 25-versus-18 vendor text could not be re-read without signing in. The discrepancy therefore remains unresolved.

• Not verified criminal-record access. No search was opened.
• The 25-name list and the 18-county sentence were not reconciled.
• Not all 159 Georgia counties.
• Free document access text is limited to the attorney of record or an e-filing pro-se party.

The GDC find-an-offender page sends readers to this query for a person currently in a GDC facility. After the disclaimer, the name tab had last name, first name, gender, race, age, and a facility list, plus Submit Form. The ID tab accepts a GDC ID number or a case number. No name, ID, or case number was submitted. County-jail scope is a separate unresolved record.

• The find page limits the tool to an offender currently in a GDC facility.
• Georgia.gov tells readers to use the county website for county jail. See ga-gdc-county-jail-scope-unresolved.
• Not a criminal case search and not a criminal-history report.
• Photographs display automatically if available.

The GDC visitation page says an approved visitor starts by submitting the visitation request form to the facility where the person is incarcerated. Supporting identification must be included, consent forms must be notarized, email forms are not accepted, and every visitor submits an application regardless of age. This is for the GDC facility that houses the person. It is not a county-jail visiting rule and not a locator.

• Not county jail.
• Not a person search.
• Dress-code details were visible and are not restated as the handoff.

The GDC how-to page says there are five ways to send money to someone currently incarcerated, and a linked section says the person is in a GDC facility. Visible options included a money order, JPay, a phone agent, and MoneyGram. Amounts, receive codes, and fees were not copied. No payment was sent. This is not a county-jail deposit instruction.

• Not county jail.
• No payment was made.
• Fee amounts were not recorded.

The Judicial Gateway e-access page is a table of superior-court and state-court rows. On 2026-10-01 it showed 159 superior-court rows and 71 state-court rows. Rows point at PeachCourt, re:SearchGA, or a vendors page. Magistrate, municipal, probate, and juvenile courts were not rows. A row is a directory assignment, not a completed search of that court.

• Not a single statewide search box.
• Magistrate, municipal, probate, and juvenile courts were not listed as rows.
• Account required, as stated on the page.
• No court row was searched.

Checked 2026-10-01

On 2026-10-01, 37 e-access rows (23 superior courts and 14 state courts, 24 counties with either class) linked to the vendors page instead of a single portal. That page offered PeachCourt account access and the re:SearchGA link described as 25 counties. It did not say which option belongs to which court.

• Not an assignment of one vendor to each of these courts.
• The heading says e-filing vendor, while the e-access page describes search.
• No court was opened from this chooser.

Georgia.gov does not offer a statewide warrant search on this page. It says sheriff's offices have warrant information for their county, that a request uses first name, last name, and birth date, and that payment is not required when the information comes directly from the sheriff. No sheriff site was opened and no request was made. A missing answer is not a finding of no warrant.

• Not a statewide warrant database.
• Not a criminal case search.
• Most offices are described as allowing a self-check. Some allow checks about other people. That split was not tested.
• No name was submitted.

On 2026-10-07 the Judicial Council bench-card index still listed “Misdemeanors Bail Practices -- July 2024 Revision” and did not list a later bail card. The July 2024 PDF remains reachable. The card’s own text is limited to misdemeanor defendants, including local-ordinance violations. It says they have a right to pretrial bail or unsecured judicial release, and that a bail determination is due as soon as possible and no later than 48 hours after a warrantless arrest or 72 hours after an arrest on a warrant. It cites OCGA §§ 17-4-26, 17-6-1, and 17-6-12 and the uniform superior, probate, magistrate, and municipal court rules for that timing. It also says offenses not included in OCGA 17-6-1(a) are the ones described as bailable by a court of inquiry, and that bail-restricted offenses in OCGA 17-6-12(a)(1) are not eligible for unsecured judicial release. The timing sentence is about the bail determination. It is not a statement that the person is released. Knowing only that a charge is a misdemeanor does not choose 48 or 72 hours. The card does not cover felonies. A separate July 2024 felony card on the same index is about probation, not pretrial bail. Remaining on the index is not independent proof that every sentence is current beyond this recheck date.

• Not felony pretrial bail.
• Not a release decision and not a statement that release occurs at 48 or 72 hours.
• Offenses included in OCGA 17-6-1(a) are outside the court-of-inquiry sentence.
• Bail-restricted offenses are not eligible for unsecured judicial release.
