Abstract

Using the analytical method, the purpose of this paper is to emphasize some constitutional and legal principles, whose application and implementation will lead to UAE judiciary governance. Six major principles can be summarized as a result of these principles (Khalil, 2022). A few of these principles serve as a foundation for the UAE judicial governance; others serve as a guarantee for judicial governance. Further, the principles of openness of the judiciary, a confrontation between litigants, and appeals against court rulings ensure judicial governance (Alsubaie, 2022). At the end of this paper, a number of results shall be confirmed. The UAE judiciary will definitely preserve the right to litigation as a result of its governance. Additionally, all citizens and residents shall have the right to initiate legal proceedings without discrimination, provided that the following rights are satisfied: the right to legal counsel, the right to confrontation between litigants, and the right to appeal against court rulings.

Keywords: Governance of Judiciary, United Arab Emirates, Equality Between Litigants, Judicial Independence, Impartiality of the Judge, Confrontation Between Litigants, Appeal Against Rulings, Openness of Judiciary
