City and county courts have limited jurisdiction on municipal issues. Whose case would a city or county court be most likely to hear?

City and county courts generally handle local matters such as traffic and parking violations. A resident contesting a ticket for parking on a city street is therefore the most likely case for one of these courts to hear. Murder and organized crime cases are more serious, and an illegal-gambling case involving a state senator would likely fall outside ordinary municipal jurisdiction.
