Off from the main courtroom - a few feet behind the jury box is the deliberation room.

At least one early photograph shows the courtroom with the judge's bench inexplicably under the balcony. It gave the judge something to look at beside lawyers - but made it hard on the audience to watch the proceedings.

This concludes our interior tour of the Fayette County Courthouse.
