11/3/25, 9:25 AM Maktoum bin Mohammed chairs meeting of Dubai Judicial Council
During the meeting held at his office, H.H. Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed approved the promotion of
several judges and members of the Public Prosecution. These promotions underscore a commitment to
recognising distinguished judicial talent and fostering a work environment conducive to exceptional
performance.

Additionally, H.H. Sheikh Maktoum approved the new organisational structure for the Dubai Judicial
Institute, and the launch of a Best Judicial Practices Forum. The forum is designed to facilitate
knowledge sharing among local and international judicial bodies, highlight leading practices from the
field, and drive innovation within the judicial sector.

H.H. Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed said, “We remain committed to developing a fully integrated
judicial system, guided by the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum,
Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, to establish Dubai's judiciary as a global model for
upholding justice and the rule of law. Supporting our distinguished judicial talent, fostering a culture of
innovation, and leveraging advanced technologies are key pillars that play an essential role in

establishing a forward-thinking judiciary that keeps pace with Dubai's dynamic development, while
bolstering its competitiveness on the global scene.”

During the meeting attended by Mohammed Ibrahim Al Shaibani, Director-General of His Highness The
Ruler's Court of Dubai and Deputy Chairman of the Judicial Council, and its members, the Dubai Judicial

Council addressed several agenda items, focusing particularly on personnel affairs within the judiciary
and requests submitted by its members.

The Council reviewed a report from its General Secretariat detailing the Memoranda of Understanding
(MoUs) signed with accredited higher education institutions across the UAE.

These agreements are designed to enhance research and education cooperation and to provide

practical training opportunities for university students within Dubai's judicial entities.

H.H. Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed underscored the importance of expanding these academic
partnerships to cultivate a new generation of national talent qualified for judicial careers, and bridge the
gap between academic theory and its practical application.

The Dubai Judicial Council reviewed the outcomes of its judicial entities' participation at the GITEX

GLOBAL 2025 exhibition. Presented under a single Judicial Council platform, the initiative brought
together Dubai Courts, Dubai Public Prosecution, the Rental Disputes Centre, the Judicial Inspection
Authority, the DIFC Courts, and the Dubai Judicial Institute, reflecting the seamless integration of
Dubai's judicial bodies.

H.H. Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed highlighted the importance of investing in AI and predictive

analytics to boost judicial efficiency, and stressed the necessity of adopting modern technologies to
enhance customer services and bolster public satisfaction and confidence in the judiciary.
