Which court handles all juvenile court and family law matters?

• A. Superior Court
• B. District Court
• C. Municipal Court
• D. U.S. District Court

Answer: (A)

In Arizona, the Superior Court has general jurisdiction and handles the major types of cases, including the juvenile division for matters like dependency and delinquency and all family-law issues such as divorce, custody, and support. This court operates statewide through the county-level Superior Courts, with juvenile matters organized within that division. Municipal Courts and Justice Courts handle more limited, local matters within city or town boundaries, not broad family or juvenile cases. The U.S. District Court is for federal matters, not state juvenile or family law. So the court that handles all juvenile court and family law matters is the Superior Court.
