Arizona Superior Court

The Constitution of Arizona provides the Superior Court with jurisdiction over:[1] Under Article 6, section 13, of the Arizona Constitution, "[t]he superior courts provided for in this section shall constitute a single court, composed of all the duly elected or appointed judges in each of the counties of the state.[3] For example, the Superior Court division located in Coconino County is officially the, "Superior Court of the State of Arizona in and for the County of Coconino."[3] However, since each county elects the sheriff, clerk, attorney, public defender, legal defender, and attorney of its branch and owns and operates the building(s) in which it is located, they are authorized to use variations of the name in informal documents.The "Commercial Court is a specialty calendar within the Civil Department to resolve controversies that arise in commercial settings expeditiously and cost effectively."[4] A separate division of the superior court in Maricopa County serves as the Arizona Tax Court and has statewide jurisdiction over disputes that involves the imposition, assessment or collection of a tax.
