With the formation of a separate province of Odisha in 1936, Bargarh district was carved out incorporating the areas of two sub-divisions, Bargarh and Padmapur from the erstwhile district of Sambalpur in March 1993. The Judgeship of Bargarh was separated from its parent judgeship Sambalpur with effect from 12th July, 2011, and the Court of District and Sessions Judge started functioning at Bargarh. A total of 26 different courts are functioning in the judgeship with outlying stations at Padampur, Sohela, Barpali, Attabira, Bheden and Bijepur.
