Can you transfer a case from one state to another?
Each state (or territory) Supreme Court is able to transfer to another state (or territory) Supreme Court. This means that to transfer a matter lodged in a lower court (e.g. the Local Court in NSW or Magistrate’s Court in Victoria), you will first need to move it to your state’s Supreme Court.
Can you change your court location?
The change of venue form asks for the judge to move your court from the city where you were detained to a city closer to where you currently live. The blue form tells the judge and immigration your new address so they can send you important documents like notice of your court date.
Does crying in court help?
Though the motivations behind the tears still won’t likely sway a judge, sincere tears are less likely to elicit disgust than those that are an obvious ploy. When you are charged with a crime, the court isn’t looking for an act; they are looking for the truth.
