Exam answer
The COURT OF THE DISTRICT JUDGE is the highest civil court in a district. It hears suits concerning property, money transactions, contracts, wills and divorce, and appeals from the subordinate civil courts.
Explanation
One name earns the mark. Its criminal counterpart is the SESSIONS COURT. The point examiners like is that the SAME OFFICER presides over both — called the District Judge when trying civil cases and the Sessions Judge when trying criminal ones. Papers ask for one or the other, so read whether the question says civil or criminal.
