Blue Ridge Judicial Circuit Superior Courts

Blue Ridge Judicial Circuit, Cherokee County, Georgia 
Welcome to the Blue Ridge Judicial Circuit website. Superior Court operations reside in the county judicial facility, but it is not a county court. The Superior Court is the general jurisdiction court in Georgia. Superior Courts are, in effect, circuit courts. The Blue Ridge Judicial Circuit is a single county circuit comprised entirely of only Cherokee County. Court in Cherokee County is held in the Cherokee County Justice Center pictured to the right. For a brief history and overview of the circuit, see About Blue Ridge Circuit
