Civil registry
The civil registry:
- receives documents for filing
- maintains the court's records
- performs all necessary administrative work associated with the Planning and Environment Court and the civil jurisdictions of the Supreme and District Courts.
There are permanent registries located in Brisbane, Rockhampton, Townsville, Cairns, Beenleigh, Ipswich, Maroochydore, Rockhampton, and Southport.
In other regional areas, the local Magistrates Court registry generally performs this role.
Registries are generally open for business on weekdays (except public and court holidays) between 9.00am and 4.00pm. Check with your local courthouse for specific opening times.
