- Single Justice Procedure (SJP) cases — including TV licence evasion, minor motoring offences, and similar non-imprisonable matters dealt with by a single magistrate on the papers
- Family and civil proceedings — including emergency protection orders and certain family court matters
- Youth court hearings — cases involving defendants aged 10–17; note these are not published in public listings due to legal protections for minors

What is the difference between Newcastle Magistrates' Court and Newcastle Crown Court?

Can I attend a magistrates' court hearing in Newcastle?

What is the Single Justice Procedure (SJP)?
The Single Justice Procedure is a way of dealing with certain minor, non-imprisonable offences — such as TV licence evasion or speeding — without a full court hearing. A single magistrate reviews the case on the papers. SJP queries should be directed to the Single Justice Service Centre on 0300 303 0656 or email SJS@justice.gov.uk.
