Judiciary of Iraq

The judiciary of Iraq is composed of apex courts, provincial-level lower courts, the public prosecutor as well as supervisory and advisory authorities. The affairs of the judiciary are administered by the Supreme Judicial Council, and the Judicial Institute is responsible for training Iraqi judges.

The judiciary of Iraq was altered after the 2003 invasion and subsequent federalization of the country. However, since 2017, a trend of systematic reversal of post-2003 federalization has been occurring in favour of centralization.
