Castlemaine Magistrates Court
The Magistrates Court is the court where all criminal matters involving adults commence. It is also the court that hears summary criminal matters including traffic offences, and domestic violence order applications. While the Magistrates Court deals with criminal matters where the accused is aged 18 or older, the Children’s Court (located in the same building) deals with criminal matters where the accused is under 18 as well as hearing child protection and adoption matters.
If you have a matter in the Castlemaine Magistrates Court, make sure you arrive at court well before the time your matter is listed to be heard. You should be neatly and conservatively dressed, and you should come prepared to be at court for most of the day.
Parking at the Magistrates Court is limited however, street parking is available. If you are attending court for traffic offences for which the court may impose a licence disqualification period, do not drive to court.
Once you arrive at the Magistrates Court you will be required to make your way through security and make your way to the court registry and make known that you are in appearance at court. The registrar will then direct you into the courtroom. If you are represented on the day, your solicitor will generally undertake the above process of talking to the court staff on your behalf.
The Magistrates Court is only open on Fridays from 9.00 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. On the day the Magistrates Court is closed, you can contact the Registry at the Bendigo Magistrates Court if you have any queries.
