Looking into an odd neighbor? Researching a possible business partner? Curious about that date tomorrow?
Relieve that stress from the comfort of home.
The Cobb County magistrate and state courts have now put their records online through a system called CourtConnect, the county announced Wednesday.
"CourtConnect is designed to promote accessibility to public records and ease of navigation within the court system," said Angie Davis, clerk of state court, in a news release. "We are excited to be able to offer attorneys, litigants and the public this free, online service."
You can search by party name or case number. If you do, you'll find the parties involved, assigned judge, case filings, offenses, dispositions, pending court dates and judgments.
In state court, you'll have access to civil, traffic and misdemeanor cases.
In magistrate court, you can get information on these cases:
» Civil: small claims, garnishment, abandoned motor vehicles and personal property foreclosures.
» Criminal: arrest warrants, bad checks, application hearings, ordinances and parking tickets.
