The Nevada state court system has District, Justice and Municipal courts. District Courts have general jurisdiction over civil and criminal cases, but generally only hear cases that are beyond the jurisdiction of Justice and Municipal courts. District Courts also hear Family Law cases. Justice Courts hear criminal misdemeanor cases, and civil cases with less than $10,000 in dispute, as well as certain unlimited civil cases, such as landlord-tenant disputes. Municipal Courts generally hear cases regarding the violation of municipal ordinances, and may hear other assorted municipal cases. Although every county in Nevada has a District Court, whether a particular county has any Justice or Municipal Courts, or multiple, varies from county to county.

The Arizona court system has four types of courts - Superior, Justice, Municipal, and the Arizona Tax Court. The Arizona Tax Court handles certain cases regarding state and local taxes. The Tax Court operates out of Maricopa County and hears cases for the whole state. Each county in Arizona has a mix of Superior, Justice and Municipal Courts. Superior Courts have general jurisdiction, but usually handle cases beyond the jurisdiction of lower courts. The jurisdiction between Municipal Courts (sometimes known as Magistrate Courts) and Justice Courts overlaps in certain criminal cases. Both hear cases regarding violations of state law that occur within the municipality. Justice Courts hear small civil cases, including small claims cases. There are also Tribal Courts in Arizona, but these operate separately from the state court system, though Tribal Court decisions may be enforced by state courts.

Municipal Courts and Justice Courts are the lowest level courts in any given county. Which of these courts is considered the "lowest" varies county to county. Some smaller counties may not have municipal courts (such as Borden and Mills counties), and some counties may not have Justice Courts (such as Dallas County), so it is hard to say that one is lower than the other. Generally, though, Municipal Courts and Justice Courts hear the lowest level of civil cases (such as small claims) and minor criminal matters, such as misdemeanor offenses and municipal ordinance violations, and felony preliminary hearings. the precise jurisdiction of a particular Municipal or Justice court depends greatly on the particular county, as each county divides jurisdiction between its various courts.
