What are the three divisions of the High Court?

• A. Administrative Court, Admiralty Court, Commercial Court
• B. King's Bench Division, Chancery Division, Family Division
• C. Queen's Bench, Civil Court, Family Court
• D. High Court, Common Law, Equity Court

Answer: (B)

The High Court is organized into three divisions to handle different kinds of civil matters. These are the King’s Bench Division, the Chancery Division, and the Family Division. The King’s Bench Division deals with general civil claims and judicial review of public bodies, the Chancery Division focuses on matters of equity and business such as trusts, property, company law, and many IP issues, and the Family Division covers family law, including divorce and cases involving children. Within these divisions there are specialized courts (like the Administrative Court or the Commercial Court), but they sit inside the divisions rather than being separate divisions themselves. This structure is why the three divisions listed in the correct option are the right answer.
