District Court Thrissur

ABOUT DISTRICT COURT

In the Kingdom of Cochin, Desavazhis and Naduvazhis were empowered to settle the disputes following the prevailing customary law. More serious matters used to be attended by the monarch himself. In 1812, for the first time in its history, graded law courts were established under the Diwanship of Colonel Munro, in the Kingdom of Cochin. The first Subordinate Courts (Sub Courts) were established by Colonel Munro at Trichur (Thrissur) and Tripunithura.

District & Sessions Court Thrissur in it's present form came in to existence after 1st November 1956 on formation of Kerala State. The Thrissur Courts were earlier situated at Chembukkavu, where the 'Kerala Sahitya Academy' is presently functioning. At that time there were only District Munsiff court and village court.The Civil Station building at Thrissur was inaugurated in the year 1957 and there after the courts functioning at Chembukkavu were shifted to this building. During those days there were only one District Court,one Sub Court, two Munsiff Courts and three Magistrate Courts.
