Hotten Magistrates Court

Hotten Magistrates Court is a lower court, where almost all criminal proceedings start. Some civil matters are also decided here, notably family proceedings.  If a serious crime is committed, it will be transferred to the crown court for sentencing, or a full trial and jury.
