Morocco’s judicial system recorded notable progress in 2025, particularly in digital transformation and faster case processing, according to Mounir Al Mountassir Billah, Secretary General of the Supreme Council of the Judicial Power.
He stated that the number of judges reached 5,141, marking a 22 percent increase compared to 2020, with women representing 28 percent, reflecting strengthened human resources and improved performance indicators.
Case processing times also declined, dropping from 120 to 87 days in courts of appeal, while stabilizing at around 40 days in first-instance courts, with similar improvements in commercial and administrative courts.
This progress is attributed to ongoing reforms, especially in digitalization, which has helped simplify procedures and enhance the quality of judicial services, alongside the development of digital platforms and analytical tools.
The official added that the 2021–2026 strategic plan has been completed, with preparations underway for a new plan covering 2027–2032, focusing on expanding digital courts, noting that over 351,000 judicial decisions were drafted electronically and around 30,000 rulings signed digitally.
