Georgia Public Records

A public record refers to information recorded or filed by a public agency that is considered open and available for anyone to inspect. What constitutes a public record is wide-ranging but generally includes any information, in any medium, created, maintained, processed, or kept by local, state, or federal government agencies.

Examples of public records are emails, court records, historical data, meeting minutes, criminal records, photographs, and more.

Each public agency must comply with state and federal law to determine the policies regarding the maintenance of and access to public records, along with any fees. Public records can be requested in person, by email, phone, postal mail, or online. Typically the agency responsible for the records will have detailed information about requesting public records on their website.

However, there is a long list of exemptions, fees, and processing times that can request public records lengthy and complicated. That’s why we have put together this comprehensive guide for Georgia public records.

We will start with the federal and state laws that define public records in Georgia.

Which federal laws apply to public records in the United States?

The main objective of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), signed into law in 1966 by President Lyndon B. Johnson, is to provide citizens with transparency of all federal government-related activity. The goal is for people to trust and have faith in their government.

Under the FOIA, all federal government agencies (excluding Congress and the federal judiciary) must provide any requested information within a timely manner unless otherwise exempt by law. If exempt, the federal agency responsible must give details regarding the statute or law that prevented the disclosure of information.

How does Georgia law define public records?

The Georgia Open Records Act (GORA) ensures access to public records so that people are aware of and able to address what is happening with public funds and the overall function of their government. The GORA mandates that public records are made available for inspection promptly.

The GORA defines “public record” as all documents, letters, papers, maps, tapes, books, photographs, computer-generated or based information, data, data fields, or similar material prepared, maintained, or accepted by a person or agency using that information for government use.

In Georgia, if a public request is denied in part or completely, the agency responsible must provide specific information regarding the Code section, subsection, and paragraph stating the reason the request is exempt. The agency must provide the records or reason for denial within three business days.

Exemptions

Georgia Code § 50-18-72 is specific about what information is not considered public. Below is a summary of the exceptions to the Georgia Open Record Act:

• Any information federal statute or regulation requires to be kept confidential
• Any permanent records maintained by a judge of the probate court under Code Section 16-11-129, relating to weapons carry licenses, or according to any other requirement for keeping records relative to the possession of firearms, except when law enforcement agencies or probate court judges seek records relating to licensing and possession of firearms.

Court Records

This section provides an overview of Georgia’s court system structure, details regarding what public records are open to the public to inspect, and how to search for court records.

Supreme Court

The Supreme Court of Georgia is the highest court of the state. The Supreme Court’s primary responsibility is to review decisions made by lower courts or agencies.

The Supreme Court has exclusive appellate jurisdiction for all cases regarding the Constitution of the State of Georgia where an ordinance, provision, or law’s legal status is challenged, treaty construction, and all cases involving election disputes.

The Supreme Court’s jurisdiction includes:

• Court of Appeals certified cases
• Wills
• Title to land
• Equity
• Habeas corpus
• Divorce and alimony cases
• Extraordinary remedies
• All cases that could result in a death sentencing

The Supreme Court of Georgia has one chief justice, a presiding justice, and seven justices.

Court of Appeals

The Georgia Court of Appeals, established in 1906, is the state’s intermediate appellate court. It is the court of first review for criminal and civil cases adjudicated in a trial court. Such a review aims to correct legal mistakes occurring at the trial level, not change jury verdicts or bench trial outcomes. This court can certify legal questions to the Supreme Court.

The Georgia Court of Appeals has appellate jurisdiction for all cases in the state, except for murder, constitutional questions, and habeas corpus cases where the Supreme Court has sole appellate jurisdiction.

The Court of Appeals of Georgia has fifteen judges serving in five divisions.

Superior Court

Georgia’s Superior Courts have general jurisdiction over felonies, land title matters, equity cases, and divorces. These trial courts can also hear misdemeanors, civil law actions, and appeals from lower courts.

State Court

Georgia’s State Courts have limited jurisdiction restricted to one county. State Court judges handle preliminary hearings in criminal cases and hear civil cases not held exclusively for Superior Courts. State Courts also issue arrest and search warrants and hear misdemeanor cases involving traffic violations.

Juvenile Court

Georgia established Juvenile Courts to protect children’s well-being and provide control and guidance promoting the child and the state’s best interests. Juvenile Courts have exclusive jurisdiction over delinquent youths under the age of 17 and deprived children under 18. These courts also ensure children removed from their homes receive proper care.

Probate Court

Georgia’s Probate Courts have exclusive jurisdiction over estate administration, guardian appointments, the probate of wills, and involuntary hospitalization of dependent individuals. All Probate Court Judges are responsible for issuing marriage licenses and conducting oaths of office. They can hear habeas corpus cases or rule on preliminary criminal hearings.

In counties where there is no State Court, Probate Court Judges can hear certain traffic cases, misdemeanors, and violations of state game and fish laws in counties without a State Court, except when a jury trial is requested.

Magistrate Court

Georgia’s Magistrate Courts have jurisdiction over civil claims not exceeding $15,000. These claims can include distress warrants, arrest and search warrants, certain minor criminal offenses, distress warrants, eviction notices, deposit account fraud, county ordinance violations, preliminary hearings, and summonses. The Magistrate Court does not hold jury trials. Typically the involved parties, not attorneys, argue their case.

There are 159 Magistrate Courts in Georgia, one for each county in the state. There is one Chief Magistrate per Magistrate Court; the Chief Magistrate is responsible for establishing policies and assigning cases and judges for their county.

Municipal Court

Georgia’s court system includes local courts, which have different jurisdictions. Courts of incorporated municipalities issue criminal warrants, hear municipal ordinance violations, handle preliminary hearings, and have joint authority over cases involving possession of one ounce or less marijuana and shoplifting cases.

Judicial Council of Georgia

The Judicial Council of Georgia, founded in 1945, is responsible for establishing policies and providing guidance for the state’s courts. The Judicial Council makes recommendations to the General Assembly, approves financial requests, and reviews Superior Court judgeship requests.

The Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC), created in 1973, serves as the Judicial Council’s staff. The AOC’s goal is to deliver expert guidance and support to the Georgia judiciary. The AOC completes administrative tasks and provides the courts with financial services, information technology support, and legislation advice.

• Signed an Acknowledgement of Paternity form stating that they are the father of a child.
• Registered on the putative father registry stating that it is possible they may be a child’s father.

Generally, fathers register with Georgia’s PFR if they don’t know where their child currently resides, think that they are the father of a child, or the child’s mother is preventing them from contacting the child.

Only authorized individuals can search the Putative Father Registry as it is considered confidential information per Georgia Code (Section 19-11-9 (e)). Those eligible includes:

• The Georgia Department of Public Health, a member in good standing with the State Bar of Georgia, or a licensed child-placing agency if the reason is to find a biological father.
