The files in this series documented the various elements that constituted a case brought before a Magistrate. These included summons of witnesses, summons to the defendant, (which included a description of the charge brought against the defendant), information of complaint (which also describes the nature of the complaint), notice of fine, and occasionally witness statements.The cover of each file noted the date, the parties involved and the decision, including the amount of any fines payable.

Witness summonses did not provide much detail on the case itself, as they were form letters instructing witnesess to appear before the court at a specific time.

This series comprises a sample of files from the Waimate Magistrate's Court from the date range 1965-1974.
