Corte di Cassazione

The Corte di Cassazione is Italy’s highest court for civil and criminal cases. Its main role is to review and ensure correct application of the law in decisions made by lower courts. It does not re-examine facts or evidence but verifies whether legal procedures and interpretations were proper. Its rulings set important legal precedents and unify judicial practice across Italy, providing final and authoritative resolution on legal issues. The court's decisions are binding and help maintain consistency and fairness in Italian law.
