Law of Mongolia

Mongolia operates a three tiered court system of first instance, appellate, and supreme courts, divided into three branches for civil, criminal, and administrative cases, with a separate Constitutional Court for matters of constitutional law and additional alternative dispute resolution mechanisms. The Supreme Court was established in 1927 and the Constitutional Court in 1992, and the judiciary is governed by foundational laws covering civil procedure, criminal procedure, court decision execution, and administrative procedure, with the Judicial General Council maintaining judicial independence while judge status and numbers are set by separate legislation and parliamentary approval.
