Thomas S. Kirk Juvenile Justice Center
2000 East Michigan Street, Orlando, Florida 32806
History
Orange County's court facilities have been overwhelmed by the exploding area growth and the concurrent growth in demand for judicial services. The resulting overcrowding and dispersion of court-related agencies have seriously hindered the efficiency, security, and integrity of the courts. In an attempt to address these and other concerns, the Thomas S. Kirk Juvenile Justice Center was opened in April of 1991.
Design
The Juvenile Justice complex includes six (6) courtrooms, two (2) hearing rooms, chambers for five (5) Judges, and offices for judicial support staff, Court Administration, Teen Court, Clerk of the Circuit and County Courts, State Attorney, Public Defender, and the Sheriff.
