In [[Virginia]], the district court (lower-level trial court) is split into the General District Court and the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court.  Another peculiarity of the Virginia court system is that the Court of Appeals, the intermediate appellate court, has narrowly defined jurisdiction; in particular, it does not hear appeals of [[contract]] or [[tort]] cases.<ref>[http://www.courts.state.va.us/courts/cib.pdf Virginia State Courts]
