The county courts, also known as "the people's courts," have jurisdiction over misdemeanors, traffic offenses, and small monetary disputes. On the other hand, circuit courts have jurisdiction over a wide range of cases, including civil disputes involving amounts greater than $30,000, estate controversies, cases involving minors and incapacitated persons, juvenile cases, tax disputes, property boundary determinations, and declaratory judgments. Circuit courts are also authorized to issue writs such as certiorari, mandamus, and habeas corpus, among others, to fully exercise their jurisdiction.
It is worth noting that legal professionals can access comprehensive information from the Broward County Circuit Court through Trellis.Law. The database offers various case types, including Civil, Family, and Probate, and provides Smart Search functionality using multiple variables.
