About us
The County Court of Victoria is established pursuant to the County Court Act 1958. It has original and appellate jurisdiction and is the principal trial court in the State of Victoria. The Court hears over 11,000 criminal, common law and commercial cases each year.
The Commercial Division consists of any proceeding involving disputes concerning debts, claims for damages, any property, trusts and some appeals. There are 5 lists in the Commercial Division, the General List, Banking and Finance List, Complex Cases List, Building List and the Arbitration List. There is no upper monetary limit on the jurisdiction of the Commercial Division.
The Commercial Division has 6 judges, 2 judicial registrars, 2 division lawyers, and a dedicated Commercial Registry, led by the Commercial Division Director.
The Commercial Registry is directly managed by the Manager Registry Services and has 4 Case Coordination Registrars and 3 Registrars. The Commercial Registry is the principal point of contact between a party in a proceeding (primarily through their legal practitioners) and the Court and supports the progression of cases throughout their life cycle.
