Brisbane District Court
Courts
The Brisbane District Court sits at the Queen Elizabeth II Courts of Law (415 George Street, Brisbane QLD 4000) and provides a major venue for serious criminal matters, substantial civil disputes and appeals in Queensland.
Types of Criminal Cases Commonly Heard
At the Brisbane District Court, you will typically encounter:
- Serious indictable offences such as armed robbery, major drug offences or sexual assault which require full trial process
- Criminal matters committed from the Magistrates Court due to complexity or severity of charges
- Pre‑trial directions, jury trials, sentencing hearings and appeals of Magistrates Court decisions
Local & Procedural Considerations
- This is a high‑volume, high‑stakes metropolitan venue; early legal preparation is strongly advised given the complexity of matters listed here.
- Understanding local listing schedules, registry requirements (such as the registry at the George Street building) and the logistics of trial‑level work is important for effective representation.
- Given the size and prominence of this venue, counsel with experience in the District Court environment can make a significant difference in outcomes.
