Recently, Harrisonburg became the battleground in the fight over the legalization of same-sex marriage in Virginia. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia in Harrisonburg against the governor of Virginia, the State Registrar of Vital Records, and the Staunton Circuit Court Clerk for refusing to grant marriage licenses to two lesbian couples that are residents of the state.  While the trial court judge has removed the governor from being a defendant in the case, the trial over same-sex marriage in Virginia is continuing against the Staunton Circuit Court Clerk and the State Registrar of Vital Records.

If you have a DUI/DWI case in Harrisonburg then you will be visiting the Harrisonburg General District Court. Virginia District Courts retain sole jurisdiction over DUI, juvenile, and traffic infractions but also hear child custody and support matters. Divorces in Harrisonburg should be filed with the Rockingham County Circuit Court, which also handles domestic relations and probate cases, among others.
