How 72 Hour Booking Works in Peachtree Corners
Georgia law sets strict time limits on holding someone after arrest. Under O.C.G.A. § 17-4-26, a person arrested with a warrant must see a judge within 72 hours. That is the "72 hour booking" rule. The clock starts at the time of arrest, not when the person reaches the jail.
Warrantless arrests have a tighter window. O.C.G.A. § 17-4-62 sets a 48 hour limit. Peachtree Corners sees warrantless arrests for DUI, shoplifting, domestic disputes, and drug offenses. If the 48 hour hearing does not happen in time, the person can ask for release.
Both rules apply at the Gwinnett County Detention Center. Weekend and holiday arrests can shift the schedule, but the legal clock runs nonstop from the moment of arrest. The Gwinnett County Magistrate Court manages first appearance hearings to stay within these deadlines for Peachtree Corners and all other county arrests.
