The Magistrates' Court of Victoria (MCV) is a jurisdiction within the Court Services Victoria statutory authority. MCV determines over 300,000 cases per annum at 51 (metropolitan and regional) venues and across a range of jurisdictions (including criminal, civil, family law, family violence and specialist courts and programs).
MCV's vision is to deliver the highest standard of justice to the community we serve. We have a long history of providing justice for Victorians and an ongoing commitment to building the community's confidence in a fair and responsive justice system.
