VERMONT JUDICIARY
The Vermont Judiciary encompasses the entire state court system and provides the public with services they need to access the courts and understand court operations in Vermont. The Vermont court system is administered by the Supreme Court. The court administrator, the administrative judge for trial courts, and court-appointed boards and committees assist the Supreme Court by seeing that administrative policies adopted by the court are carried out. Each county has a Superior Court, which is divided into four separate divisions: Civil, Criminal, Family, and Probate. There also is a statewide Environmental Division based in Burlington, which meets in various locations statewide. Statewide jurisdiction over civil violations is provided through the Judicial Bureau.
