Overview of Koori Court
The Koori Court is an initiative of the Victorian Aboriginal Justice Agreement created under the Magistrates' Court (Koori Court) Act 2002 (now incorporated into the Magistrates' Court Act 1989). The Koori Court has four general objectives to:
- improve defendants’ understanding of the court
- encourage defendants to take responsibility for their actions and recognise the consequences of their behaviour
- create a court system that is culturally responsive
- ensure greater participation of the Aboriginal community in the sentencing process.
