Established in 1677, the Tribunal of Corts emerged in Andorra to address the limited judicial system that had previously existed in the country. Prior to its creation, Andorra faced challenges in resolving legal disputes and administering justice due to the absence of a formal institution dedicated to such matters. The establishment of the Tribunal of Corts marked a significant development in Andorra's legal framework, providing a structured platform for adjudicating cases and upholding the rule of law. Comprising judges appointed by both the co-princes of Andorra - the French president and the Spanish bishop of Urgell, this judicial institution played a crucial role in ensuring impartiality and justice in the legal system. With the Tribunal of Corts in place, Andorra witnessed an improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of its judiciary, leading to a more robust legal system that could address a wide range of legal matters. This development contributed to enhancing the overall governance and stability of Andorra, fostering trust in the legal system among its residents and stakeholders. The creation of the Tribunal of Corts underscored Andorra's commitment to strengthening its legal institutions and upholding the principles of justice and fairness.#Andorra #JudicialReform #RuleOfLaw
