In response to a city-wide Domestic Violence Safety Assessment, the Davidson County General Sessions Court’s docket structure was reorganized in 2014 to allow for a dedicated Domestic Violence Court. While the Court has been hearing cases involving Domestic Violence with Judge Marcus Floyd, the current docket structure provides an efficient and timely processing of cases involving domestic violence and simplifies the court process for all parties involved.
All Orders of Protection and criminal cases involving domestic violence in the General Sessions Court are docketed in the dedicated Domestic Violence Court which operates daily in Courtroom 4B and 4C of the Justice A.A. Birch Building. The three (3) judges assigned to preside over the dedicated Domestic Violence Court on a rotating basis are Marcus Floyd and Allegra Walker and Ana L. Escobar. The Criminal Court Clerks for Domestic Violence docket preparation is Matthew Du, Mary McKinnie, and Malcom Nevils.
The dedicated Domestic Violence Court began operation on September 2, 2014.
