DFV Live List

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is the DFV Live List?
  • The DFV Live List online application provides a secure and consistent approach to manage court lists for DFV matters at participating Magistrates Courts in Queensland, supporting the smooth and safe running of the court.
  • The application helps DFV stakeholders work together to improve court users' access to justice services, also improving victim safety, and generally supporting the efficient and streamlined operation of the court.
  • The DFV Live List can be accessed by authorised court stakeholders including Police Prosecutors, court reception workers, duty lawyers, DFV specialist service providers and Magistrates Court Services Registry staff at participating Magistrates Courts in Queensland.
  • Private lawyers engaged directly by aggrieved or respondent parties do not use the DFV Live List.
  • The new DFV Live List will initially be used at Beenleigh Specialist DFV Magistrates Court, replacing a trial version of the application. Pending funding, the system may be used by other Specialist DFV Magistrates Courts and selected Magistrates Courts in Queensland.
  • Once you have registered, actual DFV Live List access is granted for one or more days at a time; i.e., for DFV court stakeholders who will be at court on particular day/s or over a planned period.
  • For example, Duty Lawyers will typically be given access on the day prior to check conflicts, and on the day of planned duty at court to update duty lawyer status details of parties.
