The court system is the place where people go when they need help in settling differences of various kinds.  However, the court system has its own set of rules and regulations – even its own words, sometimes – that can be confusing. 

In this section there are some short videos with general information about how California’s court system works. 

It is hoped that these videos will help you understand how the court can help you.
