The District Office was the lowest political-administrative unit in Trenčín County and at the same time the first instance court. The seat was Kysucké Nové Mesto. It was headed by the chief officer who was assisted by one or two officers, with other staff in the office. The judicial agenda was withdrawn and handed over to district courts in 1871. The Office supervised compliance with the law, kept the agenda of taxes, fees, military affairs, elections, being also the industrial supervision of the first instance. The area of the district of Považská Bystrica was divided into fourteen notarial districts. After the establishment of the Czechoslovak Republic, the structure of the Office remained unchanged, only the territorial jurisdiction was partially altered.
