Which court hears a construction defects claim in Azor?

Under regulation 7(a) of the Civil Procedure Regulations, 2018, the claim is filed in the court for the area of the defendant's residence or place of business, or of the act or omission on which the claim is based. If the sale contract contains a jurisdiction clause, check it, because a claim is filed in the court the parties agreed on.

Where there are several defendants, the claim can be filed in a court that has jurisdiction over one of them (regulation 7(c)). The amount claimed determines whether the case is heard in the Magistrates' Court or the District Court.

The courts in the district

• Bat Yam Magistrates' Court, 7 HaRav Nissenbaum St., Bat Yam (Bat Yam Hall of Justice). Registry counters, including affidavit certification and apostille, open Sun-Thu 08:30-13:30 (source)
• Tel Aviv District Court, 1 Weizmann St., Tel Aviv-Yafo. Registry public hours, including affidavit certification, Sun-Thu 08:30-13:30. Apostille only on Sun, Mon and Wed during public hours (source)

Azor is listed under the Tel Aviv judicial district in the Judiciary's list of localities by judicial district.

Azor has no magistrates' court. The Judiciary's locality list places Azor in the Tel Aviv District, and under the Courts Order every magistrates' court's jurisdiction is its whole district. Bat Yam is the nearest magistrates' court in that district; the source does not name it as Azor's designated court.

How do you start?

Document the defects, send the contractor written notice, and commission an engineer's opinion when the contractor does not repair. You can check the building file in Azor on the website of the Azor Local Planning and Building Committee.
