Mmabatho Magistrate Court is the main seat of the Ngaka Modiri Molema district in North West and publishes a single switchboard number.
Official contact channels
- Court: 018 387 8000
Services and responsibilities
The court handles criminal and civil cases, maintenance, domestic violence, childrens court and child justice matters, sexual offences and small claims, and administers branch courts elsewhere in the district.
Office and address information
The court is on University Drive, Mmabatho, 2735, with post to Private Bag X2045 at the same code. No street number is published, so the university precinct is the landmark. Mmabatho adjoins Mahikeng, and the two names are often used for the same area.
Applications and escalation
With only one number published, there is no alternative line if the switchboard is engaged. The departmental operational notices page lists courts experiencing telephone or power faults and is worth checking if the number does not answer.
