Upholding Justice in Helena and Across Montana
The Montana Supreme Court is the highest court in the state and serves as Montana’s final court of appeal in civil and criminal matters. It reviews decisions from Montana trial courts and certain specialized courts, and it issues published opinions that guide how state law is applied statewide.
Montana does not have a separate intermediate appellate court, so appeals from Montana District Courts generally go directly to the Montana Supreme Court. The court also has limited original jurisdiction in certain extraordinary writ matters.
