Circuit Court (Ireland)

The Circuit Court in Ireland is a regional court that handles a wide range of cases, including civil disputes like personal injuries, family law matters, and criminal cases such as theft or assault. It serves as an intermediary between the District Court, which deals with less serious issues, and the High Court, which handles more serious or complex cases. The Circuit Court can hear trials, make judgments, and impose penalties, often serving local communities across various geographic areas to ensure accessible justice.
