The Judiciary of Mauritius

Administers the Supreme Court and subordinate courts.

What this authority does

Mauritius runs one of the world's clearest hybrid systems: substantive private law from the French Code Napoléon, procedure and evidence from the English common law, and a final appeal to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London — a route retained after independence in 1968.

Services for the public
