In België bestaat er geen equivalent voor de ‘High Court’. De gerechtelijke organisatie in
Engeland is georganiseerd op 4 niveaus, alsmede een aan dat niveau gekoppelde
bevoegdheidsverdeling. De High Court of Justice (kortweg: High Court) bevindt zich op de
tweede niveau in deze hiërarchie. De High Court is opgedeeld in een aantal divisies en
heeft daarbinnen een vrijwel ongelimiteerde civiele jurisdictie in eerste aanleg.
