Judicial Administration

Said, "When you have a child that you had in a DSS case, or maybe a juvenile delinquent case where a child was in trouble and they come back to you later and you see that they’ve made a very positive turn in their life and they’re on a good path to success or they remember who you are — it’s gratifying."

- District Court judges hear civil, criminal, and juvenile cases. Civil cases dealing with divorce, child custody, and child support are heard in District Court. 
- Under the District Court, the magistrate can try small claims cases ($10,000 or less), landlord eviction cases, and suits for recovery of personal property. A magistrate is an independent judicial officer, recognized by the North Carolina Constitution as an officer of the district court.
