Law/Patents - Law (general) / Courts
Portuguese term or phrase: forum
Para o juiz diretor do fórum, Diego Migliorini Junior, a instalação traz benefícios imensuráveis para a sociedade. “A prestação jurisdicional será muito mais rápida, dois juízes e duas varas tomando conta de todos os processos, dobram a resolução dos conflitos de família.” Em sua manifestação, o magistrado agradeceu a todos que se empenharam para a concretização desse objetivo. “O Tribunal de Justiça forneceu estrutura e nós vamos entrar com o trabalho.”

Explanation:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courthouse

A courthouse (sometimes written court house) is a building that is home to a local court of law and often the regional county government as well, although this is not the case in some larger cities. The term is common in North America. In most other English-speaking countries, buildings which house courts of law are simply called "courts" or "court buildings". In most of Continental Europe and former non-English-speaking European colonies, the equivalent term is a palace of justice (French: palais de justice, Italian: palazzo di giustizia, Portuguese: palácio da justiça).

Fórum ou foro (ô) (ambos, aportuguesamentos do termo latino forum)[1] é o nome dado ao edifício em que estão sediadas as instalações do Poder Judiciário, onde trabalham os magistrados ou onde funcionam os tribunais judiciais de determinada localidade.
