located in

the Court of First Instance of the Netherlands Antilles, established/located in Curaçao

This exact example is given by the Juridisch Lexicon.
Note from asker:
I thinhk in a lot of contexts established/located would work just as well, but unfortunately the system allows me to only award points to one person (they should change that). Thanks for your input though!
