DUBAI MAKES A DECISION ON THE CREATION OF A SPECIAL COURT, WHICH WILL CONSIDER CASES CONCERNING SERIOUS VIOLATIONS OF DUBAI TOURISTS AND PERSONS WHO ARE VISITING TO THE COUNTRIES. The main advantage of this court will be a high speed of consideration of cases, given the temporary nature of the presence of violators in Dubai.
The court will begin work this year. He will consider offenses usually punishable by fines. The Dubai court is known for lengthy pre-trial procedures and waiting times for the consideration of cases; the creation of a separate court for tourists should not only relieve judges, but also help tourists return home in time.
In 2014, the number of cases registered in the Dubai courts of all instances - the first, appeal and cassation courts increased by 14%, while the number of civil lawsuits increased by 13% (to 60 963), and criminal cases - by 15% (to 57 114) .
