Florida is divided into 20 Circuit Courts, mostly comprised of several of the 67 Florida counties. Only 5 Circuit Courts are stand-alone counties: Miami-Dade, Hillsborough, Palm Beach, Monroe, and Broward. \n \n \n \nThe Eleventh Judicial Circuit<\/a> covers Miami-Dade and has 80 circuit court judges and 43 county court judges who are elected for six-year terms. At the end of this time, judges may run for reelection and serve additional terms. \n \n \n \nIn the circuit and county trial courts, factual disputes are resolved, either by jury trials where verdicts are rendered by the people, or by non-jury or “bench” trials where a judge decides the issues in the case. In general,\u00a0County Courts<\/a>, sometimes called “the people’s courts”, are courts of limited jurisdiction where minor criminal (misdemeanor) and civil cases are heard. In the\u00a0Circuit Courts<\/a>, which are the highest state trial courts in Florida, major criminal (felony), civil, family, juvenile and probate matters are heard. \n \n \n
