INTERNS &
VOLUNTEERS! Have a rewarding and educational experience while
contributing to
the courts and your community.
The Superior Courts of California in
Monterey, San Benito, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz counties have
launched a regional intern and volunteer program to help courts
better serve their communities. The program gives students and all
citizens opportunities to contribute to the courts and the community
while they learn about the judicial system from the inside.
There are a variety of volunteer
opportunities at courthouses from Palo Alto to King City, and from
Santa Cruz to Hollister. You are invited to join the courts in this
effort to respond to the public's needs while enhancing the public's
understanding of and confidence in the courts.

A superior court is a trial
court in which a judge or jury decides cases by applying the law to the
facts presented by witnesses’ testimony and other evidence. Superior
courts have trial jurisdiction over all criminal and civil cases. Special
departments of the courts handle family, probate, mental health, juvenile,
small claims, and traffic cases.
