Strictly Indictable (SI).

« Back to Glossary Index

Strictly indictable offences are the most serious offences with which a person can be charged. An example of this type of offence is murder. These offences can only be dealt with in the District Court or Supreme Court. Your matter will be transferred to the District Court or Supreme Court for Trial or Sentence, after the committal process in the Local Court. The actual charge will determine which Court your matter will be heard in.
