The Legal System of Nepal is based on a combination of statutory law, customary law, and judicial precedents. It operates under the framework of the Constitution of Nepal, which was adopted in 2015. The system is hierarchical, with the Supreme Court at the top, followed by appellate and district courts. Judicial independence is a key feature, ensuring that courts can make decisions free from political influence. The legal system also incorporates various laws, including civil, criminal, and administrative laws, to address different aspects of governance and individual rights in the country.
