From filing to decision

The case number of a decision carries the year in which the case was registered with the court. The gap is the difference, in calendar years, between that year and the year of the decision: a case registered in December and decided in January has a gap of one year. It is not a duration in months.

In 2025, of the 569 published decisions of the court with a known filing year, 76% were issued in the calendar year in which the case was registered, 20% in the following year and 4% two or more years later. For all Czech courts together the shares are 70%, 26% and 4%.

Courts of the same tier

The table sets the court beside the courts of the same type whose volume in 2025 is closest to its own. Courts of the same type do not receive the same disputes, so the figures are a reference point, not a comparison of quality.

Understanding these figures

What a district court does

A district court (okresní soud) is the court of first instance for most civil disputes: claims for payment, loans and credit, leases, damages, divorce and maintenance. Its decisions can usually be appealed to the regional court for its area. In Prague the district courts are the obvodní soudy, and the Brno Municipal Court (Městský soud v Brně) is the district court of Brno.

What the figures cover

The 5,035 decisions counted for Okresní soud ve Znojmě from 2020 to 2025 are those published under its name in the open-data collection of the Czech courts. They are not all of its decisions and do not measure its caseload. For all courts together the collection holds 565,780 decisions over the period, of which this court accounts for 0.9%.

Yearly volumes

Between 2020 and 2025 the yearly number of decisions of Okresní soud ve Znojmě ranges from 95 in 2020 to 1,810 in 2021. All courts together show movements of the same kind, from 15,224 in 2020 to 175,346 in 2022, so a change from one year to the next says little about the number of cases the court handled.

Reading the figures with care

Okresní soud ve Znojmě published 569 decisions in 2025. From 200 decisions in a year, this site shows a gap profile and subject terms. The gap is counted in calendar years and the mix of cases differs from one court to another, so it should not be read as a measure of how a court works. No statistic can predict the outcome of a particular case.
