Which of the following courts is responsible for handling matters concerning minor offenses and disputes?

The Traffic or Police Courts are specifically designated to handle matters related to minor offenses and disputes, such as traffic violations, municipal ordinance violations, and other petty legal issues. These courts operate with the aim of providing a streamlined process that addresses minor cases efficiently, thereby relieving higher courts from handling less serious matters.

Superior Courts, on the other hand, deal with more significant criminal and civil cases, including felonies and larger civil disputes. The Georgia Court of Appeals focuses on hearing appeals from lower courts, reviewing decisions to ensure that legal procedures were followed correctly, not on handling minor offenses. Finally, the Supreme Court of Georgia serves as the highest court in the state, handling the most crucial legal matters and providing final interpretations of state law, which is far removed from the scope of minor disputes typically addressed in Traffic or Police Courts.
