Maryland Circuit Court Locations
Each county in Maryland contains a trial court where civil matters in controversy are greater than $30,000.00 or the matter was filed in District Court and a jury trial was prayed thereby removing the case to Circuit Court. The Circuit Court is the court where a Plaintiff may have a trial by jury to decide all outstanding issues in this case. Circuit Court discovery rules permit the parties to take depositions, propound 30 interrogatories, obtain an independent medical evaluation, request admission of facts and genuiness of documents. Discovery in Circuit Court can take months to complete and be quite time consuming depending upon the number of parties in the lawsuit, number of attorneys involved in the case and number of witnesses to be deposed. Maryland Circuit Courts also hear appeals from the District Court and many of the various commissions and administrative bodies in the state including but not limited to the Maryland Workers Compensation Commission, and the Administrative Hearings Division of the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration.
