Te tuku ratonga ā-tangata kia āhei atu ai te katoa ki te ture.

The High Court is New Zealand's only court of general jurisdiction.

'General jurisdiction' means there are no limits on the cases the High Court can hear, either in terms of the kind of criminal offences it can hear or the amount of money being claimed in a civil case.

The High Court is the highest court in New Zealand that is able to hear cases at 'first instance', before any appeals.

The High Court also hears appeals from a number of other courts and tribunals, such as the District Court and Family Court.
