Pretrial Services

Chatham County Pretrial Services assists the courts in making release-and-detention decisions that preserve public safety as well as a defendant’s statutory and constitutional rights. Key steps include screening defendants, completing a risk assessment to determine the defendant’s risk, and contacting resources the defendant needs. Pretrial supervision services are only available to eligible referred defendants.

Pretrial defendants in custody who meet program criteria and agree to terms of supervision may be released to Pretrial Services by judicial order. Supervision requirements, which vary by risk level, may include daily call-ins, office visits, substance abuse screening, and referral to appropriate community resources.
