Question: Where should I attend for my Burwood Local Court matter?

Before your court date

Use the latest notice and directions for your own matter. If there is a conflict, ask the registry to clarify the venue and attendance method; tell your lawyer about it. An announcement about a building is not proof that your case is postponed.

Common questions

Does the closure mean I do not have to attend?

No such conclusion can be drawn from the directory notice. Check the directions for your own case and clarify any uncertainty with the registry and your lawyer.

Is the reopening date guaranteed?

Treat it as an announced date and check again before travelling.

Full video transcript

For a Burwood local court matter, check your hearing directions before travelling. The official directory announces a temporary closure later in twenty twenty six, so the building shown in an old video may not be where you need to go.

Checked on the sixth of September twenty twenty six, the directory lists the court at seven to nine Belmore Street. It announces closure from the fifth of October with reopening scheduled for the fourteenth of December twenty twenty six. Those are announced arrangements, not a guarantee that nothing will change.

Do not assume your hearing is cancelled, automatically postponed or transferred to a particular court. Read your latest notice and any later directions. If they conflict with the directory, contact the registry to clarify the venue, date and way you must attend. If you have a lawyer, ask them to check the directions for your case.

Once your venue is confirmed, allow time to find the right courtroom. NSW Local Court Guidance says to check the court list and let the court officer know you have arrived. Ask where to wait. The registry can help with procedural information, but legal advice about your case should come from a lawyer.

For help with your circumstances, use the Go to Court Booking link to request a lawyer consultation. Availability depends on your matter and location. This is general information, not personal legal advice.
