Circuit Courts

Circuit Courts hear felony criminal prosecutions and civil lawsuits. Circuit Courts hear appeals from County, Justice and Municipal courts and from administrative boards and commissions such as the Workers’ Compensation Commission and the Mississippi Department of Employment Security.
Youth Courts

The Youth Courts deal with matters involving abuse and neglect of juveniles, as well as offenses committed by juveniles. Young people who have not reached the age of 18 may be subject to the Youth Court. Some offenses which would be treated as crimes if committed by adults are known as delinquent acts when they involve juveniles.
County Courts

County Courts have exclusive jurisdiction over eminent domain proceedings and juvenile matters, among other things. County Courts may handle non-capital felony cases transferred from Circuit Court. County Court judges may issue search warrants, set bond and preside over preliminary hearings.
