The State Court of Bulloch County has been recognized with a Clearance Rate Excellence Award from the Judicial Council of Georgia.

The Clearance Rate Excellence Award recognizes the top 10% of courts in each class of court that demonstrate exceptional performance in maintaining clearance rates, a key indicator of a court's ability to effectively manage its caseload. 

Clearance rates are calculated by diving the number of disposed cases by the number of filed cases. A clearance rate of 100% or higher demonstrates a court ability to resolve at least as many cases as were filed each year. 

No Bulloch County court has received this recognition in years said Heather McNeal, Clerk of Superior, State, and Juvenile Courts.
