Ordinary courts

Ordinary courts will adjudicate only criminal, civil, and security matters. They may not adjudicate political or constitutional questions.

Supreme Court

The Supreme Court is the highest judicial authority within the ordinary court system.
It will hear appeals from judgments of the District Courts.
The Supreme Court will consist of 15 judges.
Their terms will not be time-limited, and the maximum retirement age will be 72.
Supreme Court judges will be selected from among the most senior District Court judges by an 11-member committee consisting of:
- The President of the Supreme Court;
- Two Supreme Court judges;
- Three government ministers; and
- Five members of the Sanhedrin elected by the Sanhedrin.

District Courts will hear cases above the jurisdictional threshold established by law for the Magistrates’ Courts and appeals from judgments of the Magistrates’ Courts.
District Court judges will serve without fixed terms and will be subject to a maximum retirement age of 72.

Magistrates’ Courts will hear cases above the jurisdictional threshold established by law for AI-based adjudication and appeals from judgments issued by the AI-based adjudication system.
Magistrates’ Court judges will serve without fixed terms and will be subject to a maximum retirement age of 72.

The Court for AI-Based Adjudication will hear civil cases only, up to a threshold established by law.

Its judgments will be binding in the same manner as those of any other court.

The law will define specialized courts, such as family courts and labor courts, together with their respective jurisdictions.

The law may also establish an AI-based tribunal as the first instance for proceedings within the specialized courts.
