Magistrate Court
The primary responsibilities of the Magistrate Judges are to determine probable cause, read the defendant their rights, and issue warrants in criminal cases. The Magistrate may also set, issue, and enforce bail conditions. The Magistrate Court does not determine guilt or innocence in criminal cases. Our Judges and staff are committed to the concepts of excellence, fair justice and mutual respect.
