Lawsuits are broadly divided into 2 types, Civil & Criminal.

1. A District Court usually handles the cases which are Civil in nature. The jurisdiction of a District Court is given in the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908.
2. Sessions Court, on the other hand, handles the cases which are Criminal in nature. The jurisdiction of a Sessions Court is given in the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.

In India, the Court of Sessions, commonly referred to as Sessions Court, has been established by the state government for every sessions division and it is presided over by a Sessions Court judge. The judge is appointed by the High Court of the state. Keep in mind that there is only one Sessions Court in each division at different places. Also, it comes within the purview of a specific number of judges. Sections 225 to 237 of The Code of Criminal Procedure deal with the procedure in trials before a Court of Sessions. In case the office of the Sessions Judge is vacant, the High Court can make necessary arrangements for any urgent matter or application that is pending before the court mentioned above to be dealt with by an Additional or an Assistant Sessions Judge or in their absence, by a Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM).
