Description

Structure and Jurisdiction of Subordinate Courts

The structure of subordinate courts typically includes District Courts, Sessions Courts, and lower courts that handle various types of civil and criminal cases. Their jurisdiction is defined by state laws and covers local disputes, small claims, and other legal matters that require swift resolution.

In simple language, these courts are the first point of contact for most legal issues. They ensure that justice is administered at the grassroots level. Modern initiatives, such as digital case management systems, have improved the efficiency of these courts and reduced the time taken to resolve disputes.

Their clear structure and defined jurisdiction help in providing timely and accessible justice to the public.
