The Market Court


Explanation:
Om det nationella sammanhanget (Sverige eller Finland) är klart, bör det räcka med "The Market Court". Annars får man skriva "The Swedish Market Court" eller dylikt.

disagree  Charles Ek: There's an official use of "Market Court" at the links Daniel Löfström provided.

  -> Obviously the asker is not after a lazy, facile, simplistic, meaningless and unimaginative answer.
disagree  Charlesp: yea, but too specific. - these are institutions in a country outside of Sweden.// Re "Mercantile Court" an interesting thought, but the Swedish Market Court is a court of appeal, with very specific and limited jurisdiction - not at all equivalent.

  -> Alas, the term of Mercantile Court - that corresponds etymologically and half-jurisdictionally and whose Mancunian etc. practictioners and judges are well-known to me - must remain posted for future BrE ref.

Marketing Practices Court (or Tribunal)


Explanation:
It is is Sweden, then it is The Swedish Market Court - that's the official name. It is sort of a no-brainer:

See http://www.marknadsdomstolen.se/the-swedish-market-court
Its a special court in Sweden, which deals with cases relating to issues concerning whether various forms of marketing have been conducted in a proper manner.

However it is in in general (the asker hasn't made the effort to specify), then it would be called the Marketing Practices Court (or Tribunal).

Could also be a "Competition Court" (depending; but unlikely)

The Swedish Market Court is the highest court of appeal (a specialized court) that handles cases related to the Competition Act and cases involving the Marketing Act and other consumer and marketing legislation.

Also note: Marknadsdomstolen är högsta instans i mål som kommer inför domstolen. Dess domar och beslut kan inte överklagas.

And that endast näringsidkare, Konsumentombudsmannen och vissa sammanslutningar får föra talan i Marknadsdomstolen.
