Where is Philadelphia common pleas court in the court system?
The Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas is part of the state court system. Each county in Pennsylvania has a Court of Common Pleas, which is the state court with general trial jurisdiction. "General jurisdiction" means that it can hear all civil and criminal cases, though generally it only hears cases beyond the jurisdiction of other courts. For example, Philadelphia Common Pleas Court shares jurisdiction with Philadelphia Municipal Court over small claims cases under $10,000, but generally such a case would be handled in Municipal Court, while a civil case for $50,000 could only be heard by the Court of Common Pleas.
