Practice Areas in Alabama
The Court System in Alabama
Alabama operates a four-tier court system designed to handle everything from minor infractions to major felonies and complex civil matters. At the foundation are the District Courts and Municipal Courts, which serve as the entry point for most legal matters. District Courts handle misdemeanor criminal cases, traffic violations, small claims up to $6,000, and preliminary hearings for felony cases. Municipal Courts deal with city ordinance violations and some traffic matters within city limits. The next level consists of Circuit Courts, which are Alabama general jurisdiction trial courts. These courts handle felony criminal cases, civil cases over $6,000, divorce and family law matters, and appeals from lower courts. Circuit Courts are organized into 41 judicial circuits across Alabama 67 counties. Above the trial courts sits the Alabama Court of Civil Appeals and the Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals. These intermediate appellate courts review decisions from lower courts - the Court of Civil Appeals handles civil matters while the Court of Criminal Appeals focuses on criminal cases. At the apex is the Alabama Supreme Court, the state highest court, which has discretionary jurisdiction over most cases and mandatory jurisdiction in certain matters like death penalty appeals. What makes Alabama distinctive is its specialized appellate structure with separate courts for civil and criminal appeals, unlike many states with a single intermediate appellate court.
