The council, which will have financial and administrative autonomy, will serve as the highest authority overseeing the judiciary in Sharjah, helping the ruler manage and organize legal affairs.<\/p>\n

In a separate <\/strong>decree<\/a><\/strong>, the Public Prosecution was formed as an independent body to handle investigations and prosecutions<\/strong>, reporting directly to the Judicial Council. A Judicial Department was also set up to manage Sharjah\u2019s courts and judicial services. Previously, Sharjah\u2019s courts operated under the UAE\u2019s federal judiciary<\/a> system.<\/p>\n
