I went to file divorce papers. The clerk that was training 2 others apparently needs to be trained herself. The return dates weren't filled in although she did look at a calendar and I heard her say it out loud. I should of signed papers right there and I wasn't asked to. One trainee wasn't even paying attention. Get it together clerks

I had my daughter go into the court house with a docket number. I needed information on a loan modification. The gentleman behind the counter was very nice and told her that he couldn't give her the information because she wasn't listed on the docket. The only reason I didn't go myself is I am fighting cancer.He told her bring her father with her and they will give the information to him . So on Tuesday Jan. 5 2021, at 1:30pm the very next day, my daughter went in again with her father who is on the docket . The woman behind the counter had quite the attitude and was extremely rude. This lady has no business working with the public. How can the guy the day before say bring one of your parents and I will give you a copy of the paperwork, to a totally different attitude saying because there are other peoples names on it I can't have a copy. I needed this for a dispute I am having with my bank. I have absolutely no proof now. Thank you.

Some personnel are great, like peter! Gotta be 1 star simply because this is less an institution and more like a hate group against fathers. Acts outside the bill of rights with no oversight or compliance to laws and precidents of the nation. If this place burned down, it would be a victory for liberty.
