Emanuel County Clerk of Superior Court (Kristin Hall): the county’s recorder of military discharges

The Emanuel County Clerk of Superior Court - Kristin Hall, whose office serves the superior, state and juvenile courts and acts as the county's official recordkeeper and custodian of land and property records - is the county's recorder of military discharges under O.C.G.A. 15-6-72 and 15-6-78; the county's own Clerk of Superior Court page prints the jury information, the traffic-citation payments, the notary commissions and the court schedules and no discharge line, so the free recording and the 50-year closure rest on the State entries.

Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The office. The county's own Clerk of Superior Court page seats the office: "The clerk of court, one of Emanuel County's four constitutional officers, is served by Kristin Hall. Her office serves the following courts: superior, state, and juvenile. As clerk, Kristin is considered the official recordkeeper of the county; she maintains criminal and civil court filings and is the custodian of land and property records ... Kristin and her team also prepare weekly court schedules to ensure the smooth operation of the judicial process within the Emanuel County portion of the Middle Judicial Circuit." The page prints the jury-information route, the traffic-citation payments and the notary commissions, and no discharge line, so the recording duty is the statute's. The statute. Georgia's clerks of the superior court record discharges under O.C.G.A. 15-6-78 and keep them confidential for fifty years under 15-6-72, with free copies to the authorized list (the State entries carry the sections and the synopsis); an Emanuel veteran records the DD-214 at the clerk's office in the Emanuel County Courthouse at Swainsboro and asks there for copies.
