Types of Cases Heard at Cwmbran Magistrates' Court
As a magistrates' court within the Gwent justice area, Cwmbran primarily deals with summary criminal offences and either-way offences at the initial hearing stage. Common cases listed here include driving offences such as drink-driving and driving without insurance, public order offences, minor assault charges, theft, criminal damage, and drug possession matters. The court also processes single justice procedure cases, which cover offences like TV licence evasion, minor road traffic matters, and council tax non-payment — these are typically dealt with by a single magistrate on paper without requiring the defendant to attend. More serious either-way offences that cannot be retained by the magistrates are committed or sent to Newport Magistrates' Court or onward to Newport Crown Court for trial or sentencing.
