How and where is the Dispossessory action filed?
The action is filed by filling out the Dispossessory Forms in either the Magistrate Court or State Court Clerk’s Office. (An action may be filed in the Superior Court, but almost no filings are initiated in Superior Court.) The filing fees and Sheriff’s service fees vary from county to county, however, they never more than $100, combined, in any of Georgia’s 159 counties.
