JACKSON COUNTY FL SHERIFF’S OFFICE

It shall be the Mission of the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department to serve the citizens of the community by;

 PRESERVING THE PEACE

 ENFORCING THE LAW

 PROTECTING LIFE AND PROPERTY

 PREVENTING AND DETERRING CRIME

 ARRESTING VIOLATORS

 REGULATION OF NON-CRIMINAL CONDUCT

Employees of the department shall serve the public by direction, counsel and in other ways that do not conflict with the discharge of their responsibility. They shall respect and protect the rights of individuals and perform their service with honesty, courage, discretion and sound judgment.

The Judicial Services Division provides law enforcement and security for The Jackson County Court House. It is our responsibility to provide a stable, relatively predictable environment in which an individual or group may pursue its ends without disruption or harm and without fear of such disturbance or harm. A Deputy Sheriff is required to attend all criminal and civil sessions of County and Circuit Court to carry out this responsibility. Outside of court hearings, Deputies are also responsible for maintaining order in each judicial office and all other areas of the building. There is a Deputy assigned to each Judge. There is also a Deputy assigned to each Jury when trials are in session or a Jury has been sequestered. Our duties are taken very seriously due to the fact that all sessions of Court involve a person’s family, property, liberty and sometimes even their life and due to this fact, emotions sometimes run high. Deputy Sheriff’s assigned to the Court House are also called upon to assist the patrol Division when needed.
