Judiciary UG

The Judiciary is one of the three arms of the State.

It complements the two other arms which are the Legislative (the Parliament) and the Executive (the Cabinet of Ministers and the President). The Judiciary's mandate is found in Article 126 (1) of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda: "Judicial Power is derived from the people and shall be exercised by the Courts established under this Constitution in the name of the people and in conformity with the law and with the values, norms and aspirations of the people."
