COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) - For a year and a few days, jury trials have been at a standstill due to the pandemic.
With Georgia Supreme Court Chief Justice Harold Melton issuing a new order Tuesday, jury trials now have a green light to resume across Georgia and in the Chattahoochee Valley.
Superior Court Chief Judge Gil McBride says he is ready, once more, to have jury trials back on his docket.
“In our circuit, we will begin on Monday, March 15 with jurors to report to the Columbus Civic Center,” McBride said.
