The Principal Registry of the
Court, located in Sydney, is responsible for the
overall administrative policies and functions of
the Court's registries. The Principal Registry also
provides various services to the Court including
strategic and communication services, personnel
services, financial management, computing support,
library services, property management and support
to the Judges' Committees.
Inquiries about a particular case should
be directed to the District Registry in which the case
was lodged or is currently being heard. Use the links
on the right to obtain contact information for each registry.
There are District Registries in each
State capital city, in Canberra and in Darwin.
The District Registries provide operational
support for the Court as well as information to legal
practitioners and members of the public. The registries
also receive court and related documents, assist with
the arrangement of court sittings and facilitate the enforcement
of orders made by the Court.
The registries of the Federal Court
are also registries for IRCA
until the work of that Court is completed, and for the
Federal Magistrates Court
in relation to non-family law matters.
