Brisbane Supreme Court

The Supreme Court of Queensland’s Brisbane listing, located at the Queen Elizabeth II Courts of Law, Brisbane (formerly referred to as the “Brisbane Supreme Court”), serves the State’s highest judicial level for civil and criminal matters.

Court Role & Jurisdiction

• The Supreme Court is the superior court in the Queensland court hierarchy.
• Criminal jurisdiction: It hears the most serious indictable offences—such as murder, manslaughter and major drug‑trafficking matters—that cannot be dealt with in lower courts.
• Civil jurisdiction: It deals with disputes of unlimited monetary value (typically matters above approx. A$750,000) and complex legal issues.
• The Court also has appellate responsibilities (via its Appeal Division) and handles matters of state‑wide significance.
