Question

Is a citation for loitering considered an arrest in georgia?

Answer

You don't say if it's the city ordinance or state statute, but, usually, yes.

Answer

An arrest is where handcuffs aer placed on a person. A citation is where a ticket is issued for the person to appear in court at a later date. So, a citation is never an arrest.
