 There are Two Different Courts, Two Separate Suspensions, and the Ten-Day Letter. After a Georgia DUI arrest, if your breath or blood alcohol registers over .08 within three hours of driving, or you refuse a state administered chemical test of your blood, breath or urine, Georgia DUI law requires that you be issued a Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) Form 1205 as well at a Criminal Court summons or a Uniform Traffic Citation for DUI. The DDS Form 1205 is a 30 day temporary driver's license, but it is also a notice of intention to suspend your driver's license, as the arresting officer has sworn that he had reasonable grounds to arrest you for DUI. more

Brookhaven Municipal Court Information. On August 1st, 2014, the Brookhaven Municipal Court will move from its current location and begin conducting court sessions on the first floor of the Brookhaven Police Department at 2665 Buford Highway, Brookhaven GA, 30328. The City Solicitor in Brookhaven is Bill Riley of Riley McClendon LLC in Marietta. Mr. Riley and his law firm act as the Prosecuting Attorneys at Brookhaven Municipal Court. Your first court appearance will be an arraignment. It is at this Court appearance that generally you either plead guilty, not guilty or ask for a pre-trial conference with the City Solicitor to obtain a recommendation of punishment or work out reduced sentence like a Reckless Driving. Reckless Driving reductions are not easily obtained in Brookhaven Municipal Court but are possible. If you are not happy with the plea recommendation offered by the Prosecuting Attorney, you have two choices. You must either waive your right to a jury trial and have a trial of your guilty before a Judge in Brookhaven Municipal Court. Brookhaven Municipal Court does not have jurisdiction to conduct jury trials. Alternatively, you can request a jury trial in which case your charges will be bound over to the State Court of DeKalb County where the process will begin all over again including another arraigment, motion hearings, calendar call and either a judge only trial or a jury trial of six jurors selected from the community jury rolls.
