Most all county courthouses have metal detectors just inside the public entrance that require you to be free of any firearms and knifes. It doesn't matter if you plan on entering the courtroom or you are there for other business. Gregg, Upshur, and Marion counties all have a multi-use building that holds more than just courtrooms that require the public to be cleared free of all weapons by a deputy.
