first instance courts
First instance courts are the initial level of the judicial system where legal cases are heard and decided. These courts handle a variety of cases, including civil, criminal, and administrative matters. The decisions made in first instance courts can be appealed to higher courts if one of the parties disagrees with the outcome.
In many countries, first instance courts are often referred to as trial courts or district courts. They play a crucial role in the legal process by evaluating evidence, hearing testimonies, and making rulings based on the law. Their judgments can significantly impact the lives of individuals and the community.
