Oregon State Courts

Oregon State Courts are the judicial system that handles legal disputes within the state, ensuring laws are applied fairly and consistently. They include several levels: the Oregon Supreme Court (highest authority), Court of Appeals, Circuit Courts (trial-level courts handling civil, criminal, family, and probate cases), and specialized courts like municipal and justice courts. These courts interpret laws, resolve disagreements, and uphold justice. Judges are appointed or elected and ensure proceedings follow legal standards. The system aims to protect rights, maintain order, and provide fair resolution of legal matters across Oregon.
