    Central Local Court

    Central Local Court deals with many of Sydney’s serious criminal matters, particularly cases where the accused is in custody or facing serious charges.

    It is often referred to as Sydney’s Bail Court because most people charged with serious offences who have been refused bail appear there first.

    Prime Criminal Lawyers regularly appear at Central Local Court, representing clients facing charges such as robbery, drug supply, serious fraud and sexual assault. We are frequently called on to make bail applications for clients who have been refused bail.

    Most serious matters that begin at Central Local Court are eventually committed to the Sydney District Court for trial or sentencing. Our lawyers are highly experienced in serious criminal law and have the expertise and determination to defend clients effectively in the District Court.
