District Court (Norway)
In Norway, the district court ( no, tingrett, literally " thing court") is the first court instance, and handles both criminal and civil cases. The chief judge of a district court is the chief district judge ( no, sorenskriver). The ruling of the district court may be appealed to the next level of court, the court of appeal, and the court of appeal's ruling may in turn be appealed to the supreme court, but only in select cases of precedential relevance admitted by the supreme court. Thus the vast majority of court cases are decided on by the district court or the court of appeal. The term ''tingrett'' for the district courts was introduced in 2002, replacing the previous terms city court (''byrett'') and district court (''herredsrett''). Historically the district courts outside the cities were known as ''sorenskriveri'' (office of a ''sorenskriver''), and consisted of a single (chief) district judge and often one or two assistant judges. The district usually included multiple pa ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
