Georgia law requires that the sheriff or his deputy attend all
sessions of the superior court as well as probate court sessions

Sheriff implement comprehensive courthouse security.   Georgia
law places the public grounds and other county property in the
keeping of the sheriff, making it his or her duty to preserve them
