What that replaces. The directory's older page still describes a "Coweta Veterans Treatment Court (January 2015)" serving Carroll, Coweta, Heard, Meriwether and Troup Counties under Judge Nina M. Baker and Emory Palmer. The 2023 West Georgia court is the one serving Carroll now; a veteran or lawyer asking about the programme should use the current number and names above. How a case gets there. A veteran with a pending eligible charge asks the defence lawyer, the prosecutor or the judge for a referral, and the court's team screens and votes. See the Georgia entry on veterans treatment courts for the phases and the state money behind them.
