Howick Magistrates Court publishes a landline and a mobile number side by side, which is unusual for a court office and useful when the landline is down.
Official contact channels
- Court: 033 330 2117
- Mobile: 083 658 4359
Services and responsibilities
The court serves the Umgungundlovu West sub district and handles criminal and civil cases, maintenance, domestic violence, childrens court and child justice matters, sexual offences and small claims.
Office and address information
The court is on Morling Street, Howick, 3290, with post to Private Bag X20 at the same code. No street number is published.
Applications and escalation
The mobile number is listed by the department as a court contact rather than against any named official, so it is an office line rather than a personal one. Pietermaritzburg is the main seat for the Umgungundlovu district, about twenty kilometres away.
