The magistrate court typically consists of a single magistrate or judge who oversees cases, often without a jury. These courts handle minor criminal offenses, civil disputes, and preliminary hearings for more serious cases. Additionally, magistrate courts may address matters such as traffic violations, small claims, and family law issues, depending on the jurisdiction. Their primary role is to ensure justice at a local level by providing accessible and efficient legal resolutions.

It depends on the country and what kind of magistrate. In the US, a magistrate can refer to two different things. They can be a civil magistrate. For small claims court, the civil magistrate acts as the "judge." In civil court, the civil magistrate files the case for the judge, if I'm not mistaken. For criminal court, the magistrate is the one whom charges are filed with. What happens next depends on the type of crime. If it is a misdemeanor, the magistrate passes control to a prosecutor (often an assistant district attorney). If it is a felony, the magistrate passes control to the grand jury. The magistrate also decides the bail and custody arrangements until a judge decides otherwise.
