New Jersey Superior Court - Organization of Trial Parts

Organization of Trial Parts

The Clerk of the Superior Court is appointed by the Supreme Court and heads the centralized clerk's office; however, most pleadings are filed in the county in which the action is venued with the Deputy Clerk, Superior Court, for the county.

For administrative purposes, the State is divided into fifteen vicinages. Most vicinages comprise a single county, but there are two vicinages that consist of two counties and two vicinages that consist of three counties. The head of judiciary in each county is the assignment judge. The General Equity, Family, Civil and Criminal Parts in each vicinage are headed by a presiding judge.
