Other events include interactive multimedia displays tracing the history of our judiciary, a learning corner which allows you to access the electronic filing system and guided tours of the courtrooms and chambers on level three.
You can also sit in on enactments of civil proceedings such as bankruptcy, assessment of damages, sheriff's seizure and sale, and breach of contract.
To end the day, visit the viewing gallery on level eight for a different take on the Singapore skyline.
