About this statute

This text is the preamble for Ley 1285 de 2009, which states that it reforms Ley 270 de 1996 on the Statutory Administration of Justice. La administración de justicia debe actuar con prontitud, cumplimiento y eficacia; los funcionarios judiciales y los titulares de la función disciplinaria deben respetar los términos procesales, y las actuaciones judiciales deben ser orales salvo excepciones legales. La administración de justicia es gratuita, y el Estado debe encargarse de su funcionamiento. La norma también limita el cobro de arancel judicial en ciertos procesos y para personas de escasos recursos en los casos previstos. La norma permite que particulares actúen transitoriamente como conciliadores o árbitros habilitados por las partes, y ordena seguimiento e informe periódico sobre estas medidas. This article lists the bodies that make up the Judicial Branch and sets the territorial competence of several courts and the Attorney General’s office. It also requires at least one court in each municipality and allows cities to organize judicial offices in a decentralized way.
