Nepal's judiciary is structured into three tiers: the Supreme Court, High Court, and District Court, with specialized tribunals like the Special Court, Labor Court, Revenue Tribunal, and Debt Recovery Tribunal addressing specific legal matters.

Specialized tribunals deal with areas such as corruption, labor disputes, tax issues, and debt recovery, ensuring efficient justice delivery. Together, these institutions uphold the rule of law and access to justice in Nepal.
