Swiss judiciary

The Swiss judiciary is an independent system that interprets and applies the law in Switzerland. It is composed of several courts, with the Federal Supreme Court at the top, overseeing the correct application of law across the country. Below it are cantonal courts, which handle cases within their regions. Judges are typically elected or appointed based on legal expertise. The judiciary ensures justice, upholding constitutional rights and resolving disputes fairly. It operates independently from the executive and legislative branches to maintain impartiality and uphold the rule of law across Switzerland.
