Doraville and DeKalb County Municipal Courts
Not every DeKalb County traffic or accident matter is handled at the county level. Cities within DeKalb operate their own municipal courts, and where a citation is heard affects both your timeline and your options.
The Municipal Court of Doraville, at 3765 Park Avenue, has jurisdiction over traffic offenses and city ordinance violations occurring inside the Doraville city limits. It also hears MARTA, Georgia State Patrol, and Georgia Department of Public Safety traffic offenses that occur within those limits. Arraignments are generally held on the first and second Monday of each month, though the calendar can vary.
If you were injured in a collision in Doraville, Chamblee, Dunwoody, Brookhaven, Tucker, or unincorporated DeKalb County, your civil injury claim proceeds separately from any traffic citation. The two are related but they are not the same case — and a traffic plea entered without advice can affect the injury claim that follows.
