Legal System of Singapore
The Legal System of Singapore is based on English common law, which was inherited from its colonial past. It consists of various courts, including the Supreme Court and State Courts, that handle different types of cases, from civil to criminal matters. The system emphasizes the rule of law, ensuring that laws are applied consistently and fairly.
In addition to the courts, Singapore has a well-defined framework of laws and regulations, including the Constitution and various statutes. Legal professionals, such as lawyers and judges, play a crucial role in upholding justice and maintaining public order within the society.
