Sheikh Sultan Bin Ahmed Bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and Chairman of the Judicial Council, presided over Thursday the Council's meeting held at Bait Elowal in the Heart of Sharjah.

Sheikh Sultan Bin Ahmed praised the efforts of the Judicial Council members, commending their ongoing dedication to enhancing the justice system and upholding the rule of law.
He emphasised that their work helps maintain a fair and efficient judicial environment that protects rights and supports social stability.
The meeting reviewed several topics, including the expansion of judicial services across the emirate’s cities, the unification of media messaging, and the enhancement of public communication through various platforms.
The Council approved the establishment of two Courts of Appeal in the cities of Kalba and Al Dhaid.
These courts will handle appeals in accordance with the Judicial Authority Law, which empowers the Judicial Council to establish courts across the emirate’s cities.
This step aims to enhance access to justice for litigants and ensure the provision of comprehensive judicial and legal services throughout the Emirate of Sharjah.
The creation of the Courts of Appeal in Kalba and Al Dhaid will help reinforce the judicial system, ease the workload on central courts, shorten case processing times, and accelerate adjudication procedures.
