High Court of Justice of Extremadura

Local government office in Cáceres, Spain

The High Court of Justice of Extremadura (in Spanish: Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Extremadura) is the highest body and last judicial instance of the Spanish judiciary in Extremadura. Unlike the Assembly of Extremadura (legislative branch) or the Government of Extremadura (executive branch), the TSJEx is not a part of the Junta de Extremadura, the autonomous system of self-government of the community, although the Extremaduran government has some powers over it, especially in material resources. The TSJEx regulates the functions of the judges and looks over the different provincial courts. The TSJEx is the final appellate court in Extremaduran territory, notwithstanding the right of a citizen to appeal to the Spanish Supreme Court and/or the European Court of Justice. The TSJEx was created on 23 May 1989 with the Organic Law of Judicial Authority (Spanish: Ley Orgánica del Poder Judicial). From Wikipedia
