Queensland's magistrates courts are set to handle over 70 cases today on September 4, with people from different walks of life appearing in courtrooms across the state.
The figure omits appearances under suppression or non-publication orders. Suppression orders block the public from accessing information that would otherwise be available in open court hearings.

| Brisbane (Roma Street) | 21 |
| Gympie | 9 |

The principle of open justice ensures that justice is not only done but seen to be done, providing transparency in court proceedings across Australia. This openness prevents abuses of power and strengthens public trust in the legal system.
In situations where openness could hinder justice, courts can issue suppression orders, protecting sensitive information while balancing the need for transparency with the protection of individual rights.
Every effort has been made to comply with non-publication (suppression) orders or statutory
provisions prohibiting publication that may apply to this information.
