Murray Chief Magistrate

• Housing & Urban Development — Magistrate Courts hear disputes between landlords and tenants where the landlord often seeks eviction. If the Magistrate Judge orders an eviction the tenant has seven days to vacate their home. The Magistrate Judge can order alternative dispute resolution to allow the landlord and tenant to reach an agreement on their own which could provide the tenant more time to vacate their home.

• Judicial Efficiency — The Chief Magistrate can determine procedures, meaning they can influence how quickly a resolution is reached for a particular dispute.
