Court of Cassation (Egypt)

The Court of Cassation in Egypt is the highest judicial authority for civil and criminal cases, primarily overseeing the uniform application of law. It does not re-examine facts but reviews whether the law was correctly interpreted and applied in lower court decisions. Its main role is to ensure legal consistency and correctness in judgments, often serving as a final appellate court. The Court of Cassation has specialized chambers that handle different types of cases, and its rulings set legal precedents that guide lower courts across Egypt.
