HOLLYWOOD COURTHOUSE

hollywood superior court

The Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center is one of the main courthouses in the Greater Los Angeles County and it serves many of the police departments in the area. The Hollywood Police Station sends most of its cases to this courthouse, but it will mainly depend on the charges against the defendant.

 

This courthouse is located at 210 West Temple Street Los Angeles, CA 90012, which is in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles. It is only a few miles away from the famous Union Station, which makes this courthouse so accessible. This courthouse is one of the bigger courthouses in the county and is located right next to a couple of federal buildings, which means that you could possible get all of your legal work done in this area. Some of the services that are offered in this courthouse include: Appeals, Bail Bonds, Community Service, Criminal, Traffic, Civil Law, and Health Services. The men and women at the Hollywood Police Station rely on this courthouse to handle all of their prosecutions and to get all of the criminals in court.

 

Because this courthouse is so big, the safety of the building and everyone inside of it is extremely important, which is why every person that walks into the building will have to be searched and their bags will go through an x-ray machine. This is to ensure that there are no weapons entering the building at any time. To add to the security there are police officers that constantly patrol the area as well as inside of the building.

 

However, the people that run the courthouse urge people to come visit the courthouse and witness the judicial system work in real life. Anybody is able to sit in a court hearing and witness how an appeal or hearing is conducted. You do not have to come to this courthouse just because you have to. It could be a good way to get more involved in your government and see how everything works firsthand.

 

There is also no need to worry about your safety while you are in the courthouse as mentioned earlier because the courthouse also has its very own police section where officers are stationed to keep the safety of everyone intact. Another great thing about the courthouse is that even with all of the traffic that comes through this building, everything is still completely organized thanks to the effort of the men and women that are employed here.
