Which type of court do solicitors have rights of audience in?

High court only
Supreme court
Magistrates court
Circuit court

The correct answer is: Magistrates court

Solicitors typically have rights of audience in the Magistrates' Court. This means that they are allowed to represent clients in this lower tier of the court system, which handles less serious criminal cases, family matters, and some civil issues. While solicitors can represent clients in the High Court and Circuit Court, their rights of audience do not extend to the Supreme Court unless they hold additional qualifications, such as being a solicitor advocate. In summary, the Magistrates' Court is the primary venue where solicitors can exercise their rights of audience without needing any extra credentials.
