Welcome to the District Court’s Website

The District Court of New South Wales is the “middle” court in the State’s legal system. (Link to Australian Legal System)

The Court consists of the Chief Judge and such other Judges as the Governor may appoint.

It is a trial Court and can hear certain appeals. The Court has both a criminal and civil jurisdiction, and the Judges preside over some tribunals. More >>>

**URGENT NOTICE TO DISTRICT COURT CLIENTS** (posted 29 April 2008)
It has come to the attention of the District Court that an unknown source is sending out automated telephone messages purportedly on behalf of the District Court. These messages should be ignored as they have not been authorised by the District Court.

Affected clients have advised that the message often states that their court matter has been cancelled or postponed and then requests the client to press 9* on their phone for further information. When 9* is pressed it transfers to an external call centre asking for personal details.

No personal details should be given and clients are asked to hang up immediately.

Clients can contact the District Court to confirm the listing date of their court matter if there is a concern. Contact Us
