Manchester Crown Court is one of the busiest Crown Court centres in the North West of England, sitting across two dedicated venues: Crown Square in the city centre and Minshull Street a short walk away in the legal quarter. This page brings together the daily cause list for both buildings, so solicitors, barristers, defendants, journalists, witnesses and members of the public can check today's hearings, sentencing schedules and trial allocations in one place. Listings are updated each working day and cover indictable offences, either-way cases sent up from the magistrates, appeals against conviction or sentence, and Proceeds of Crime Act applications.

About Manchester Crown Court

The principal venue at Crown Square sits opposite Manchester Civil Justice Centre in the Spinningfields district and handles the most serious criminal matters in Greater Manchester, including murder, rape, large-scale drug conspiracies, serious fraud and organised crime cases brought by Greater Manchester Police and the Crown Prosecution Service North West. The secondary venue at Minshull Street, housed in a Grade II listed Victorian building on Aytoun Street, hears a high volume of either-way and triable-on-indictment cases alongside committals for sentence. Together the two centres dispose of thousands of cases each year before His Honour the Recorder of Manchester and the resident Circuit Judges.
