To hold trials on civil and criminal matters arising within it's jurisdiction.
Justiciability is used to refer to a matter which is suitable for a trial court to hear. That is, if a matter is justiciable, then a trial court has the authority to hear the matter and make a ruling.
Original jurisdiction refers to a court's authority to hear disputes as a trial court; these courts determine the facts of a case. Whereas an appellate jurisdiction refers to a court's ability to review and/or revise cases already decided by a trial court. Therefore, the answer to your question is Original Jurisdiction.
Whatever appellate court is immediately above the trial court in that particular court system.
The authority to hear a case is called jurisdiction. The court with authority to try the case, or hear it first, has original jurisdiction; the court(s) that review the case on appeal have appellate jurisdiction.If the case is remanded for a new trial (or reheard, I suppose), it returns to the court of original jurisdiction.
If a defendant is eligible for a bench trial or trial by judge, the magistrate then has the authority to dismiss charges against the accused if evidence warrants it. If the defendant issues a written statement that he or she wishes to forgo a jury trial, the government agrees and the court approves, a bench trial can convene.
A tribunal is a court or forum with authority to adjudicate matters. Tribunal may refer to an administrative agency, trial court, or other official body.
A trial court has original jurisdiction, meaning it has the authority to hear a case for the first time and make decisions based on the facts presented. It is where cases are initially filed, evidence is presented, and a judgment or verdict is reached.
Technically no, because all states have autonomous jurisdiction. A US District Court decision is persuasive authority over a state court. A US District Court is a federal court, not a state court. A state supreme court decision however, is binding authority on a state appeals court level, and a trial court decision in that state would still be persuasive because its from a lower court. The decision from the Virginia Court of Appeals, however, becomes a binding authority over the state court.
you can get a Philippine municipal trial court clearance at your Municipal Trial Court :D
A trial court is the court of original jurisdiction.
Courts with appellate jurisdiction only hear cases that have been brought to them on appeal from a lower court. This means that the case has already gone through one trial before and because the people involved were unhappy with the decision, they took it to another court to see if another judge thinks differently. hears appeals from lower federal and state courts (GradPoint)
Actually a court of appeals cannot decide that. A court of appeals can only decide whether or not the trial court correctly followed procedures and existing legal precedence. It is entirely possible for procedures and legal precedence to be completely unfair (they have been many times) but if the trial court properly followed them, the court of appeals must support the trial court's decision. If the court of appeals decides that the trial court failed to follow procedures and/or existing legal precedent, then the case must be retried in a trial court.
