Since March 23, 2020, the DeKalb County Clerk of Superior Court’s Office, as part of the Courthouse COVID-19 Task Force Chaired by Chief Judge Asha Jackson, along with all justice partners, has continued to fulfill constitutional mandates in a primarily virtual environment. Thirteen Judicial Emergency Orders later, Clerk DeBerry commends her staff for overcoming challenges as well as personal loss during this time to maintain a fully functioning Clerk’s office.
Clerk DeBerry noted that the DeKalb County Courthouse air filtration system has been replaced and she has installed portable air filters throughout her office as a precaution. Plexiglass dividers will add an additional barrier of safety between employees and citizens. Daily sanitizing will continue.
Visitors to the courthouse will be required to wear a mask, have their temperature taken and follow CDC and Department of Health guidelines by maintaining 6 feet of distance from other visitors.
