Law is order, and good law is good order. - Aristotle

 The Judiciary is the legal conscience of the Commonwealth. Within the Judiciary is the Supreme Court and the Office of the Judge Advocate. By law the Judiciary is kept independant of The Chancellory and The National Assembly. This was done to keep impartiality in regards to legal matters as they relate to consitution and other matters that may fall within the scope of the powers of the Judiciary as outlined in the constitution.

The National Courts are located with the provinces and over see everyday civil and criminal matters. A case from the National Courts can be appealled to the Supreme Court for review. If the Supreme Court deems the case has merit then it will be heard. They can also refer misdemeanor or civil suits  to Office of Arbitor for settlement hearing

Powers of The Supreme Court

The Supreme Court is the high court in the Commonwealth. Within the nation there are the national courts but the Supreme Court has the final say in regards to constitutionality of laws that have been proposed or are being challenged. The Supreme Court is made up of three justices that go through a stringent review process. They must be confirmed by the National Assembly by a unanimus vote.

The office of The Judge Advocate is akin to the Attorney Generals office of the United States. This office is resposible for adjudication of law as it pertains to the constitution of the nation. For details on the on the powers of this office, please click on the constitution link
