Coroner's Court of Western Australia, Judicial institution in Perth, Australia.
Coroner's Court of Western Australia is a judicial institution located on Floor 10 of 501 Hay Street in Perth. It investigates deaths that fall under state jurisdiction and handles inquests into suspicious or unusual circumstances.
The court originated from British legal traditions brought by early colonial administrators who initially held coronial powers. Its modern structure developed gradually as the state's legal system evolved throughout the twentieth century.
The appointment of Rosalinda Fogliani as the first female State Coroner in 2014 represented a change in the judicial leadership of Western Australia.
The facility is located in central Perth and can be reached by public transport or car, with parking available nearby. Access may be restricted to specific hours or official business, so checking ahead is advisable before visiting.
The Coronial Liaison Unit, established in 2005, manages communications between the Department of Health and the coronial system, coordinating with multiple government entities.
