ΕλληνικάThe Supreme Court of Greece (Areios Pagos)
The Supreme Court of Greece, known as the Areios Pagos, is the highest court in the country, responsible for upholding the rule of law in civil and criminal matters. It operates with six civil divisions, three criminal divisions, and has the authority to convene in Plenary Session to resolve significant cases.
The Supreme Court does not address the substance of cases but instead examines whether legal procedures and the legal framework were correctly followed. Its role is to ensure that judicial processes across all levels adhere to the laws and regulatory provisions of Greece.
