While often interchangeable in many contexts, 'domstol' specifically refers to the institution or physical place where justice is administered. 'Ret' can also mean 'right' or 'justice' in a broader sense, or a specific court session/trial ('at gå i rette'). So, 'domstol' emphasizes the governmental body, while 'ret' can be more general.
Yes, Denmark has a hierarchical court system. It includes byretter (city courts), landsretter (high courts), and Højesteret (the Supreme Court). There are also specialized courts like Sø- og Handelsretten (Maritime and Commercial Court).
Rarely in common speech. It almost always refers to a legal court. You might hear phrases like 'folkets domstol' (the court of public opinion), but that's a metaphorical extension.
