CJA eVoucher AI Billing Tool
for S.D. Miss. Panel Attorneys

The United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi covers the southern half of the state, with courthouse locations in Jackson (the primary courthouse and state capital — shared with the Northern District for administrative purposes, but Jackson proper falls within S.D. Miss.), Gulfport, Hattiesburg, and Natchez. S.D. Miss. sits within the Fifth Circuit and serves a region that includes the Mississippi Gulf Coast casino resort corridor from Gulfport and Biloxi to Bay St. Louis, the historic Antebellum community of Natchez on the Mississippi River at the Louisiana border, the Hattiesburg metropolitan area in the piney woods of the south-central part of the state (home to the University of Southern Mississippi), and Jackson — the state capital — which sits at the district's northern edge.

The district's federal criminal docket includes drug trafficking (the Gulf Coast's proximity to the Port of Gulfport and the I-10 corridor makes it a transit point for cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine moving east-west across the South), firearms offenses, financial fraud, public corruption, and child exploitation. The Gulf Coast casino industry generates federal financial crimes and money laundering cases that are distinctive to this region. Natchez and the southwestern Mississippi communities along the Louisiana border generate drug trafficking matters arising from the cross-river trafficking networks centered on Concordia and Tensas Parishes in Louisiana.
