A busy court primarily dealing with urban crime from a struggling city and the flow of drugs up from New York City due to prohibitionist policies.

Full-time court.

Judges

Hon. Karen Drago, with a lot of guest judges due to the caseload, including Hon. Richard Giardino & Hon. Polly Hoye from Fulton County
