Administration of Justice of the Community of Madrid
The Administration of Justice consists of the jurisdictional function of judging and executing what has been judged and is the responsibility of the Judiciary. It is made up of a group of people and institutions whose mission is to ensure that citizens see their fundamental right to obtain effective judicial protection satisfied.
Scope of competence
The Spanish Constitution considers the Administration of Justice to be the exclusive competence of the State. However, the transferred Autonomous Communities assume the management of competencies that support the Judiciary, providing it with the material and personal means necessary for its operation.
The Community of Madrid assumed these powers in 2003, through the Royal Decree 1429 / 2002, with the transfer of functions and services of the State Administration, in terms of provision of personal and material means at the service of the Administration of Justice, which were expanded by the Royal Decree 1012 / 2013.
Competences
The Administration of Justice, understood as the Judicial Power in charge of judging and executing what is judged, is the exclusive responsibility of the State, with the General Council of the Judiciary being its highest governing body.
In matters of the so-called "Administration of the Administration of Justice", both the State Administration-Ministry of Justice and the Autonomous Communities intervene, which, through their Statutes of Autonomy, have been able to assume the management of competences that serve as support to the Judiciary.
There is a concurrence of powers between the State Administration, the Administration of the Autonomous Communities with assumed powers and the General Council of the Judiciary.
