Sherry Clifton – Circuit Court Clerk

I have served Grainger County as Circuit Court Clerk since 2010. My main objectives are to uphold this office with integrity, professionalism, and transparency while serving our citizens with courtesy, respect and efficiency. I am humbled and honored to serve the citizens of Grainger County.
In Grainger County, the Circuit Court Clerk is responsible for maintaining not only the records of Circuit Court, but also the criminal and civil records of General Sessions and Juvenile Courts.
Among the types of cases heard by the Circuit Court are contract disputes, civil torts, condemnations, domestic matters, appeals from lower courts and criminal cases from indictments returned by the grand jury.
The jurisdiction of the General Sessions Court include limited-jurisdiction torts and contracts and landlord-tenant disputes and criminal misdemeanor and traffic cases.
