Best Answer

I'm currently a law student, according to my text book specialty courts are, "Lower courts that have jurisdiction over one specific area of criminal activity, such as illegal drugs or domestic violence"

The book goes on to say specialty courts include:

-Drug courts, which deal only with illegal substance crimes.

-Gun courts, which have jurisdiction over crimes that involve the illegal us of firearms

-Juvenile courts, which specialize in crimes committed by minors

-Domestic courts, which deal with crimes of domestic violence, such as child and spousal abuse.

-Elder courts, which focus primarily on the special needs of the elderly victims rather than the offenders.
