Establishment of Separate Tribunals
- When
- 1864
- Where
- Russian Empire
The 1864 law created two separate tribunals with distinct courts of appeal, connected only through the Senate as the supreme court of cassation.
This structure ensured a unified judicial system. The tribunals operated independently, handling civil and criminal matters, while the Senate served as the final appellate authority for cassation.
