A more thorough explanation: A magistrate’s court is a lower court that is presided over by a magistrate, who is a judicial officer with limited authority to hear and decide on certain types of legal cases. Magistrate’s courts typically handle minor criminal offenses, civil disputes, and other legal matters that do not require a full trial in a higher court.
Example: In the magistrate’s court, the defendant entered a plea of not guilty to the charge of theft.
