Legal practitioner portal
Online Registry Committal applications have transitioned from the Legal Practitioner Portal (LPP) to the Queensland Courts and Tribunals Online Services Portal (OSP), as of 28 July 2025. The LPP will be accessible for four weeks following the transition to the OSP to finalise existing applications, however new applications will not be accepted.
The LPP will be decommissioned on 22 August 2025.
Please note: The OSP is currently only available for defence lawyers to apply for registry committals for relevant matters listed in the Brisbane, Rockhampton or Cairns Magistrates Courts.
The Legal Practitioner Portal is an online portal for legal practitioners and/or agency staff to access online services available from Court Services Queensland. It is free to use.
Registry Committal Application
The Registry Committal application is the first service to be made available through the Legal Practitioner Portal. It allows legal practitioners and law firm staff to lodge applications through the portal for matters in the following Magistrates courts only:
- Brisbane Magistrates Court
- Cairns Magistrates Court
- Rockhampton Magistrates Court.
Practicing Lawyers can create their law firm’s organisation and set up their profile in the Legal Practitioner Portal. Staff can be invited to join their law firm’s organisation and use the Registry Committal application online form.
Any member of a law firm, including administrative staff, can create a Registry Committal application, but only a lawyer can submit the application.
If the matter is listed for a Magistrates Court that is not participating in the pilot, or you are unable to complete the online application, you can file the matter using the current process.
Self-represented litigants are not legally able to commit a matter via Registry Committal.
