Responsibility for the Security of North Carolina's Courts

Tuesday, June 1, 1999

This article discusses the division of responsibility for courthouse security among the Administrative Office of the Courts, judges presiding over trials, judges with administrative responsibilities, counties, and sheriffs' offices. Issues may arise in relation to adequacy of a facility, sufficiency of physical items (metal detectors, etc.) needed to provide security, and quality or quantity of security personnel available.
