Following in the footsteps of the Magistrates’ Court, the County Court has given its website a facelift. It’s now to be found here.

I didn’t visit the old site often, so it’s difficult to know whether changes are substantial or merely cosmetic. I like the simplified page explaining the court’s jurisdiction, I like the layout generally, and the search function is certainly quicker than the one it replaced (though, possibly, just as temperamental).

The site has lots of little tidbits of information scattered around. I must be the last person to realise that the Court’s building at the corner of William and Lonsdale Streets in the Melbourne CBD is privately owned.
