Morocco : Legal and Judicial Sector Assessment
The overall legal framework in Morocco
is not a priority area for reform. The law-making process,
however, is weak, resulting in poorly drafted laws, and
legal dissemination is inadequate. Legal education relies
upon outdated curricula and is offered in competing
languages, French and Arabic, the selection of which largely
determines students' choices for future employment. The
training of legal professionals is minimal and is poorly
supervised. The general public has little access to legal
information. Legal aid is embryonic and restricted to
criminal matters. This assessment of the legal and judicial
sector offers recommendations in the areas of case law
dissemination, capacity building of the law-making
institutions, development of a legal toolkit for judges,
redesign of legal studies, training of legal professionals
to improve quality, supervision of translators and experts,
redirecting the activities of lawyers towards legal advice,
expanding the notaries, redesigning court operations,
expanding judicial participation on the High Council for the
Judiciary and ensuring greater judicial independence,
offering professionalized training to the judiciary,
including language proficiency as a criteria for recruitment
and promotion, obtaining judicial consent for judicial
transfers, making public judicial resources, improving the
transparency of the inspection process, drafting a code of
legal ethics, training for non-judicial appointments,
developing court management capacities, improving personnel
management, acknowledgment of the profession of registrar,
reviewing and enforcing the regulations concerning judicial
experts, further decentralizing of the management of the
judicial budgets and development of budget management
capacity, improving court statistics, upgrading judicial
infrastructure, court construction and renovation,
overhauling the entire enforcement system, development of
public information procedures, improving access of the
public to legal information and advice, and enactment of the
arbitration code.
