The Lafayette County Courthouse is located in Oxford, Mississippi and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.〔 It was constructed in 1872 to replace an earlier building burned during the Civil War. The Courthouse currently houses several judicial courtrooms and related offices, including the Third Circuit Judicial District Court,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Lafayette County Mississippi )〕 and the Third Circuit District Drug Court,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Lafayette County Mississippi )〕 which both serve Benton, Calhoun, Chickasaw, Lafayette, Marshall, Tippah, and Union counties. The Courthouse also contains the office of the Circuit Court Clerk.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Lafayette County Mississippi )〕 According to the court's website, "Mississippi's Circuit Courts hear felony criminal prosecutions and civil lawsuits. Circuit Courts hear appeals from County, Justice and Municipal courts and from administrative boards and commissions such as the Workers' Compensation Commission and the Mississippi Department of Employment Security." 〔 As the structural centerpiece to the home of William Faulkner, the Courthouse also plays a significant role in Faulkner's fictional Jefferson County. The Courthouse appears in multiple works. These include stories featuring the lawyer Gavin Stevens (including ''Knight's Gambit''), the dramatic ending to ''The Sound and the Fury'', and elements of ''Go Down, Moses''. ==Gallery== File:NRHP 77000791 Lafayette County Mississippi Courthouse North Facing.JPG|Lafayette County Mississippi Courthouse North Facing File:NRHP 77000791 Lafayette County Mississippi Courthouse NE Facing.JPG|Lafayette County Mississippi Courthouse NE Facing File:NRHP 77000791 Lafayette County Mississippi Courthouse East Facing.JPG|Lafayette County Mississippi Courthouse East Facing File:NRHP 77000791 Lafayette County Courthouse West Facing.JPG|Lafayette County Courthouse Mississippi West Facing 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lafayette County Courthouse (Mississippi)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
