The Hall and Dawson County Sheriff's Office are tasked with the protection and security of all employees, judges, and citizens which work in or enter the Courthouse, Government Center, or their associated buildings. Serving and protecting is our number one priority.
The Hall County Sheriff’s Office Court Services Division is under the direction of Captain Cindy Mustachio. Captain Mustachio oversees a highly trained and capable staff which not only handles the security of the Courthouse and Courthouse Annex Building, but they are also responsible for the execution and returns of all processes and orders of the courts and the serving of all civil processes received from the Hall County Court System, as well as other jurisdictions throughout the state. In addition to process service, the Court Services Division executes evictions, writs of possession, temporary protective orders and the collection of other judgments issued by the courts.
The Dawson County Sheriff’s Department Court Services Unit is under the direction of Captain Chad White. Captain White oversees a respected and reliable staff which is responsible for not only securing the entry point of the Government Center, but as well as providing security in all courtrooms and during all board meetings. The Court Services Unit also operates a control room which monitors 24 hour activity in and around the Government Center.
