all-case courts

My comment:

In some countries, these are also known as "small claims courts".

My references:

"
Juzgados Promiscuos (all-case courts)
Municipal
One judge who decides on penal, civil, labor,
and family matters. Juzgados are established in
places where there are no municipal courts.
In this type of juzgados one judge decides on civil,
penal, labor, agrarian, and family matters. "

Lower Court

My comment:

This term derives from the old Spanish Judicial System, referring to a court below the circuit level usually located in a small town in which a single judge attends a mix “promiscuous” of legal issues.
Bearing this in mind, please contextualize
