Local Court of New South Wales : ウィキペディア英語版 | Local Court of New South Wales
The Local Court of New South Wales is the lowest court in the judicial hierarchy of the Australian state of New South Wales and of Australia. Formerly known as the Court of Petty Sessions and the Magistrates Court, branches of the Local Court have jurisdiction to deal with the majority of minor civil and criminal matters. The Local Court has more than 160 branches across New South Wales, where civil cases are held and heard before a single magistrate, addressed as "Your Honour" or "Sir" but no longer "Your worship", as of 3 May 2004,〔(''Local Court Practice Note No. 1 of 2004: Form of Address in Court'' )〕 sitting and without a jury. The Local Court has no jurisdiction for claims in equity. ==History==
In 1788, following the landing of the First Fleet and establishment of the Colony of New South Wales, the power and authority of the first criminal and civil courts in the Colony of New South Wales were vested by the Charter of Justice.〔(''Charter of Justice 2 April 1787 (UK)'' )〕〔(History - Local Courts New South Wales )〕 The first Local Court courthouse was constructed in 1821 at Windsor, 56 km northwest of Sydney.〔
