Nigerien Law refers to the legal system in the Republic of Niger, which is based on a combination of civil law, customary law, and Islamic law. The legal framework is influenced by the French legal system due to Niger's colonial history. The Constitution of Niger, adopted in 2010, serves as the supreme law, outlining the structure of government and the rights of citizens. The judiciary in Niger is independent and includes various courts, such as the Supreme Court and lower courts. Legal matters are often resolved through a mix of formal court proceedings and traditional dispute resolution methods, reflecting the diverse cultural practices within the country.
