Electronic filing policies and uniform rules for bail and other considerations in misdemeanor cases will lead the agenda when the Judicial Council of Georgia meets at 10 a.m. Friday in the James H. “Sloppy” Floyd Building across Martin Luther King Drive from the state Capitol.

The 27-member council, made up of judges from courts across the state, meets periodically to receive information and take action on policy and administrative matters for the judicial system. Friday’s meeting will be the first one chaired by Georgia Supreme Chief Justice Harold Melton, who took the leadership role in September.
