Boston Municipal Court
The Boston Municipal Court (BMC), officially the Boston Municipal Court Department of the Trial Court, is a department of the Trial Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, United States. The court hears criminal, civil, mental health, restraining orders, and other types of cases. The court also has an appellate division (BMC judges sitting as appellate judges) which hear appeals from decisions in cases previously heard by the eight divisions of the department.
==History==
The court's history dates to 1822, the year in which Boston was chartered as a city. Two courts were established, both served by the same justices: the Boston Police Court, to hear criminal matters, and the Justices' Court for the County of Suffolk, to address civil claims. The two courts remained distinct until 1860 when the Justices' Court was abolished, and its civil jurisdiction transferred to the Police Court. In 1866, the Police Court was abolished, and its records and jurisdiction transferred to the newly-created Municipal Court of the City of Boston.〔https://books.google.com/books?id=fTU4AAAAIAAJ&dq=history+of+the+judiciary+of+massachusetts〕 In 1978, the Massachusetts Court Reform Act established the Boston Municipal Court Department as one of the seven departments of the Trial Court of Massachusetts.〔http://archives.lib.state.ma.us/actsResolves/1978/1978acts0478.pdf〕 In 2003, the department expanded to eight divisions, after it was given authority by the Massachusetts Legislature over seven other Boston-based courts.〔https://malegislature.gov/Laws/SessionLaws/Acts/2003/Chapter45〕
