The Court of King's Bench of Manitoba (French: Cour du Banc du Roi du Manitoba)—or the Court of Queen’s Bench of Manitoba, depending on the monarch—is the superior court of the Canadian province of Manitoba.
The court is divided into two divisions. The Family Division deals with family law cases including divorces, guardianships, adoptions and child welfare.[4] The General Division deals with civil and criminal matters, including civil trials, probate law, indictable offences and applications for the review of decisions from certain administrative tribunals.[5]
The current Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench as of 2021[update] is Judge Glenn Joyal, who was appointed on 3 February 2011.[1]
