history

Around 1850, the original patrimonial jurisdiction was dissolved in Istria as in the entire Austrian Empire . As a result, the judicial district of Montona was created among others. The judicial district was subordinate to the Provincial Court of Rovigno , which was responsible for the entire county and which in turn was subordinate to the Higher Regional Court of Trieste , which began operating on May 1, 1850. Even after Istria and Trieste as well as Gorizia and Gradisca gained their independence as crown lands from the original crown land coastal land, the higher regional court of Trieste remained the highest instance for the judicial district of Montona.

The judicial district of Montona formed in the course of the separation of the political from the judicial administration from 1868 together with the judicial districts Buje and Parenzo ( Poreč ) the district Parenzo . The judicial district of Montona had a population of 15,068 in 1869.
