34th Judicial Circuit Veterans Treatment Court (New Madrid and Pemiscot Counties)

New Madrid and Pemiscot counties make up the 34th Judicial Circuit, and the Office of State Courts Administrator's veterans treatment court map (January 2024) shades both as running a Veterans Treatment Court Program, so this entry carries Pemiscot too; the circuit publishes no rules or contact, so ask a defence lawyer or the Circuit Clerk in New Madrid or Caruthersville.

Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

What is published. The Office of State Courts Administrator's map of veterans treatment courts, updated January 2024 and read through the Internet Archive's capture because courts.mo.gov refuses automated fetches, shades New Madrid and Pemiscot counties, the 34th Judicial Circuit, as running a "Veterans Treatment Court Program". In the map's words: "Veterans Treatment Court focuses on addressing the substance use disorders, co-occurring disorders, or mental health disorders of defendants charged with a criminal offense who are military veterans or current military personnel." Missouri treatment courts sit under Revised Statutes 478.001; see the Missouri entry. This entry rests on that archived map: no page or order of the circuit's own naming the veterans docket could be read, and New Madrid County posts no budget or minutes that would show one. What is not. Nothing read names the court's judge, coordinator, schedule or eligibility, and the county's Circuit Clerk page lists no treatment docket. A veteran facing charges in New Madrid County should ask a defence lawyer to raise it early, or ask the Circuit Clerk at the courthouse, 450 Main Street, New Madrid (courthouse line 573-748-2524). Pemiscot County. The same map shades Pemiscot, the circuit's other county (the January 2024 copy rendered from the Internet Archive and checked again for this widening). It rests on that map alone: no page or order of the circuit's own naming the veterans docket could be read, and Pemiscot County posts no minutes or budget that could show one. The Pemiscot County Circuit Clerk's page lists a "Pemiscot County Adult Treatment Court" at 800 Ward Avenue, Caruthersville (573-333-2784), among the court's departments, and no veterans docket; ask there whether a veteran is taken into the veterans track. A Pemiscot County veteran facing charges should ask a defence lawyer to raise it early, or call the Pemiscot County Circuit Clerk, 610 Ward Avenue, Suite 3-A, P.O. Box 34, Caruthersville (573-333-0182).
