Supreme Court of the Arab Union

The Supreme Court of the Arab Union (Arabic: المحكمة العليا للاتحاد العربي al-maḥkamah al-‘ulyā lil-ittiḥād al-‘arabī) is the highest judicial authority in the Union of Arab Republics, commonly known as the Arab Union. It directly oversees the Supreme Courts of each of the union's 20 constituent republics, to which all trial courts and civil tribunals are subordinate. As such, the Supreme Court of the Arab Union is the only federal court, with all cases heard by trial courts in one of the republics, which may be appealed to the respective republican Supreme Court. The Supreme Court of the Arab Union hears only cases which affect two or more member republics, as well as appeals of verdicts of a republican Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court of the Arab Union is led by the President of the Supreme Court, who is elected by both chambers of the Arab Congress, the federal legislature. The President of the Supreme Court appoints ten puisne justices, who are traditionally drawn from the ranks of republican Supreme Court justices.
