Moscow City Court

Intermediate Appellate Courts

The Moscow City Court (in Russian, Moskovsky gorodskoy sud, shortened to Mosgorsud) is the highest judicial body of the city of Moscow for civil, criminal, administrative and other cases. It is seated in Moscow on Bogorodsky Val street and keeps an official website at mos-gorsud.ru. The infobox of its English Wikipedia article gives its establishment as 13 December 1932 and names Mikhail Ptitsyn as Chief Judge since 2020. The same article also lists the district courts of Moscow, thirty-five in all, running from the Babushkinsky and Basmanny district courts through the Zelenogradsky, Troitsky and Tushino courts to the Shcherbinka district court, which places the city court at the head of the city's court system.
