In which type of court is a case filed when a home rule city takes action against a non-compliant property owner?

In a home rule city, when action is taken against a non-compliant property owner, the case is typically filed in District Court. This type of court has broader jurisdiction and can handle various civil and criminal matters, including disputes related to property compliance and local ordinances.

Municipal courts often deal with violations of city ordinances and misdemeanor offenses, but for more significant issues, particularly those involving property law and civil disputes, District Court is the appropriate venue. The District Court can address enforcement actions that may involve extensive legal interpretations, appeals, or significant penalties, which are better suited to its jurisdiction.

The Supreme Court generally hears cases that involve significant legal questions or constitutional matters and is not the first level of court typically used for local compliance issues. Traffic Court specifically handles traffic-related offenses and is not related to property compliance. Thus, the proper venue for actions taken against a non-compliant property owner in a home rule city is the District Court.
