The Court of Appeal, which sits six times per year, hears appeals from the Royal Court in both criminal and civil cases. From the Court of Appeal, the highest court to which appeal may be taken is the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in England.

Appellate Courts

The Royal Court is the principal court in the jurisdiction. There are three full time judges of the Royal Court, the Bailiff, Deputy Bailiff and the Master. The Bailiff and Deputy Bailiff are the main trial/substantive hearing judges. The Bailiff has constitutional functions in addition to his judicial role, and so it is the Deputy Bailiff who hears a larger number of the cases which come before the Royal Court for determination.
