His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, presided over the swearing-in ceremony of three newly appointed judges to the Dubai Courts on Tuesday.
During the ceremony, His Highness wished the judges success in their new roles, emphasizing their responsibility in enhancing the judicial system and ensuring the fair administration of justice in Dubai. His Highness expressed confidence in their ability to uphold the integrity of the law and contribute to maintaining the high standards of the UAE’s judicial framework.
Upholding Law and Justice in the UAE
The UAE’s legal system is built on a combination of civil law and Sharia law, making it unique in its structure. The judiciary plays a vital role in ensuring the fair implementation of these laws, providing legal certainty for both citizens and residents. The UAE, and particularly Dubai, continues to develop its judicial institutions to meet the evolving demands of a fast-growing and diverse population, while also maintaining its commitment to justice and fairness.
As Dubai positions itself as a global hub for business and commerce, the judicial system serves as a key pillar in upholding the rule of law, reinforcing investor confidence, and promoting a stable environment for individuals and enterprises alike. The appointment of new judges signifies the continuous efforts by the UAE leadership to strengthen the judiciary and ensure that the law keeps pace with the nation's progress.
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid’s focus on enhancing the judicial system reflects his broader vision for Dubai as a city that champions fairness, transparency, and justice, and one that is capable of meeting the highest international standards in legal governance.
