The High Court of Cassation and Justice is the supreme court of Romania, heading the nation's judicial system. Its primary mandate is to ensure the uniform interpretation and application of the law across all Romanian courts and to adjudicate high-level criminal and civil appeals. Established in 1861 under Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza, it commenced proceedings in 1862 and was modeled largely on the French Court of Cassation.
