Legal Procedure in Nepal: General, Summary & Special

Legal Procedure in Nepal: General, Summary & Special

This article explains the three main types of legal procedures in Nepal—general, summary, and special. The general procedure follows standard court processes for civil and criminal cases, ensuring due process. Summary procedure is a streamlined process for minor cases, promoting faster resolutions. Special procedure is applied in specific cases like corruption or narcotics, involving designated courts and powers. Each procedure is grounded in relevant laws such as the Muluki Civil Procedure Code, Summary Proceeding Act, and Special Court Act. Understanding these distinctions ensures better access to justice and legal compliance in Nepal’s judicial system.

Principle of jurisdiction in Nepal

Principle of jurisdiction in Nepal

Jurisdiction determines which court has the authority to hear a case, ensuring legal clarity and fairness in judicial proceedings. Under Nepal’s Muluki Civil Procedure Code 2074, jurisdiction is defined by factors such as subject matter, territorial scope, and party presence. It categorizes authority across district courts for immovable property, contracts, and multiple-defendant cases. Jurisdiction ensures that legal actions are enforceable and valid, safeguarding both procedural efficiency and rule of law. At Alpine Law Associates, we help clients navigate the jurisdictional complexities to ensure their cases are filed in the correct court with rightful authority.
