Reviews of the Gaston County Courthouse










I had a bond set at $100,000 for 4 misdemeanors while people with felonies were gettting $20,000 to $50,000 bonds. I sat in jail for 5 months and the whole time my bond was not touched,only for all my charges to be dropped. They set a high bond and drag you for all the time and $ they can make off of you. This system is corrupt and needs to be investigated Judge Abernathy to be exact and how he sets such ridiculously large bonds for charges not that serious and such low bonds for charges that are. They hold you in there just long enough for you to lose everything. Then I had to bond out for probation violation when all the charges I got which violated my probation were dropped,how can that happen. Why should I have to bond out on a probation violation when the charges were dropped?










I have a texting and driving ticket that I'm not guilty for. I informed them I have COVID and they said I have to show up for court anyways. They were informed and if I'm paying a court fee I'm going to court march 4th. They are also bad at telling you when they change your court date.










@ Donato Rondinelli I apologize that your lack of awareness or selective perception has led you to believe that everyone who visits the courthouse are criminals the courthouse is the brick and mortar to get and file legal documents also to some even their place of work ,may your day be blissful.










Very Rude people that work's inside the Court House.... I'm going again today and really dreading it.....They all act like, They got there Lay-off Slip and it's there last day at work.....As a Tax Payer, you would think the people that work for us (Tax Payer) Would be more Cheerful and Helpful........But they really assume that eveyone that is at the Court House is a Criminal...... But that's not the case..... I'm trying to get a check from the Clerk of Court, From My dad's attorney through PROBATE..........Made 1 Trip about 2 months ago and she told me that i had to get a Affidavit to get the Check..... So I'll be bringing it today....... Quess will see what Happens...??










Place is just a money racket. A simple misdamenor larceny less than $50 got 2yrs probation plus that's a payment to be on probation of about $500 community service 40 hrs ,that's a weeks at check and finally court cost and any fines . $250. Total almost or more than $1000.
