Different Courts in Ireland By Gearoid Nagle

How many courts is there? There are four different courts in Ireland. There is: The District Court The Circuit Court The High Court The Supreme Court The highest Court in Ireland is the supreme court. The lowest court of the four of them is the District court

The District Court The District Court deals with civil law, It also deals with liquor licensing cases and a wide range of family law cases including custody and maintenance of children and applications for barring orders. Consumers can avail of a procedure in the District Court called the Small Claims procedure to recover sums up to the value of €2,000.

The Circuit Court It deals with civil cases which do not exceed €38,000. It can also deal with some liquor licensing cases and a wide range of family law cases including divorce and judicial separation. In criminal matters, the Circuit Court sits with a judge and jury and can deal with all except the most serious offences such as murder and rape. The Circuit Court also hears appeals from the District Court in civil and criminal matters.

The High Court The High Court is based in Dublin and has the power to hear all criminal and civil matters but usually hears only those cases that cannot be dealt with by the lower courts. This means that in civil actions it hears cases where the claim exceeds €38,000. It also hears appeals from the Circuit Court in civil matters.

The Supreme Court The Supreme Court is the highest court in Ireland and hears appeals from the High Court and occasionally from the Court of Criminal Appeal. Under article 26 of the Irish Constitution, the President of Ireland may refer any Bill passed by the Oireachtas to the Supreme Court to decide whether it is unconstitutional. The Supreme Court can also give rulings on questions of law raised in the Circuit Court.
