The Anderson County Circuit Court, where trials are conducted and felony charges are resolved is in the historic court house on the square in Clinton. The courthouse, along with the adjacent office building also houses one of two of the Anderson County General Sessions Courts, the Juvenile Court, the District Attorney’s Offices, and many of the court clerks.
Oak Ridge has a separate court building, with a clerk’s office as well, with it’s own Judge presiding over the second of the two Anderson County General Sessions Courts. General Sessions is often the first step in our criminal legal system. Most misdemeanor cases can be resolved in General Sessions, while felony cases can proceed to preliminary hearing to determine whether the case is strong enough to be set for trial.
