Keeps the records of the courts. Manages case files, collects court costs, issues documents, and maintains the official record of what happened in court.

A court clerk is not a judge. This is one of the most commonly misunderstood offices on a Tennessee ballot.

What this office cannot do alone

  • Does NOT decide cases.
  • Does NOT set bail.
  • Does NOT prosecute.
  • The clerk keeps the record; the judge decides.
