Amazing service and amazing people

The courthouse itself is fine. The people are very helpful in all areas and I have generally not had many issues - Except regarding court hearings. Since it is a small area, the judge isn't in regularly. This also means a date could be scheduled, but the judge may not have been clued in on this. So - everyone takes the time off, shows up, and no judge. That was awful.
