Coroner's Court

A Coroner's Court is a legal setting where investigations are conducted into unexplained or sudden deaths. Its primary role is to determine the cause of death, especially when it’s sudden, violent, or unknown. The court reviews evidence, hears from witnesses, and may order autopsies. This process helps provide answers to families and the public, ensure accountability, and gather information for safety or legal improvements. Coroner's Courts operate independently to ensure thorough, impartial investigations into the circumstances surrounding death.
