Nakhon Ratchasima Provincial Court

Nakhon Ratchasima Provincial Court, at present, located next to Nakhon Ratchasima Municipal Court on Ratchanikul road, outside the City Moat.

Provincial Courts exercise unlimited original jurisdiction in all general civil and criminal matters within their own districts which are generally the provinces themselves. For the purpose of expansion of services of the court to the distance area, some provinces may have more than one Provincial Court. For example, in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, there are three Provincial Courts, i.e., Nakhon Ratchasima Provincial Court, Sekew Provincial Court and Buayai Provincial Court. Where a case within the jurisdiction of Kwaeng Court brought to the Provincial Court, the latter has to transfer the case to the former. Each Provincial Court has a Chief Judge who is the head and responsible for the judicial work of the court. The Director of the Office of such Provincial Court (Registrar) under the supervision of the Chief Judge is responsible for administrative work of the court .
