A new map of Greek courts was presented on Tuesday by Justice and Deputy Justice Ministers, George Floridis and Ioannis Bougas, which aims to reduce civil and criminal decisions from 4 years to 2.5 years.
According to amna.gr, Floridis declared that the Map of Courts is the greatest reform in the sector since the founding of the Greek state in the 19th century.
Floridis stressed that the old map of courts is “completely overhauled.”
“Acquiring a unified, concentrated, qualitatively and quantitatively better first-level structure for judges, in a way that makes the operation of first-instance, criminal, and civil courts of Greece faster and more efficient and effective [is the aim],” Floridis said.
Government reforms in the sector are set to reduce court case delays that are multifaceted, including institutional changes in the Criminal, Civil, and Administrative Codes.
