Welcome to the Spartanburg County Courthouse, a modern facility designed to uphold justice efficiently. The tour highlights key areas, including the Special Courtroom, the largest in the courthouse, designed for high-profile cases with state-of-the-art technology and ample seating; the Jury Deliberation Room, a private, secure space for jurors to review evidence and reach a verdict; the Detention Room, a secure area for in-custody defendants, ensuring courtroom safety and order; the Jury Assembly Room, a comfortable space where jurors check in and await courtroom assignments; and the Supreme Court-Ready Courtroom, the only non-Supreme Court building courtroom in South Carolina with a bench that accommodates all five Justices. During our tour we will make every effort to attend a court hearing, where hopefully, you will get to hear criminal motions or pleas. Plan on significant walking and minimal seating during the tour. Class fees cover admin costs for LLL. Note: Please do not register for this event if you have previously attended a Lifelong Learning tour of the courthouse so that others have a chance to attend.
