For Courtrooms

Courtroom Furnishings

Courtrooms in courts of general jurisdiction are furnished and equipped in accordance with courthouse design regulations and the material and technical provision standards applicable to the respective court categories.

Courtroom Zoning and Furniture

In courtrooms used for civil and criminal hearings, a railing separates the participants in the proceedings from the public seating area. At the far end, a raised platform accommodates the judges’ bench, the court clerk’s desk and a stand for the national flag. In civil courtrooms, the following are positioned below the bench:

• desks for counsel and the defendant (the parties’ desks);
• tables for the prosecutor and plaintiff (parties’ tables);
• witness stand.

The following furniture is installed in courtrooms for criminal proceedings:

• counsel table (table for the parties);
• prosecutors’ table (counsel table);
• witness stand;
• protective enclosure with seating for defendants;
