Says they're open on google, their automated phone system says they're open at this time during phase 2 of Covid. They are NOT actually open. They're happy to charge you for parking tho. Afterwards you are greeted with closure notices on the door.
Its beautiful inside. That's all. No place for enjoyment . They have a nice water park in front of the old court house/jail. Very good for kids to enjoy.
When it comes to Buncombe County CIVIL stuff (as in NOT criminal), ask for, or go see Katherine. She is professional, kind and patient with those unfamiliar with legal matters, and she will help you understand what you need to do! As for the rest, it depends on who you get! If someone is helpful, be kind, and ask for them again. Try not to get impatient or frustrated, as you are the twelfth person asking that question today! BEST ADVICE: Read up about what you trying to do, read the Rules of Civil Procedure (even if you have an attorney), and have realistic expectations. These people can't answer legal questions, so try not to put them into terrible positions by asking legal questions and then getting frustrated with them.
Although not happy about getting a ticket, I found the courthouse staff to be reasonable and helpful. The officer who monitored the courtroom remembered me later in the day when I returned with a question, and he helped me navigate around the long line since I'd been there before. I was impressed that he remembered one person out of so many. Also, the district attorney's team, and the officers at the safety check, did not just rush through their jobs but listened carefully when I talked to them and were friendly and knowledgeable with their responses.
