The Judicial & Court Services Division is primarily responsible for supporting the trial and appellate courts of Ohio in the administration of justice. This is accomplished through the work of the Judicial College, four separate sections and two ongoing programs. The division helps write policy regarding the administration of justice, trains judicial officers and other court staff, offers support to the local courts and helps provide access to funding.
