Moroccan courts handled more than 5 million cases in 2024, achieving a record case clearance rate of 103 percent, according to the annual report of the Supreme Council of the Judiciary released on Wednesday.

A total of 5,052,086 cases were pending before courts of first and second instance, while 4,330,994 new cases were filed during the year. Courts issued rulings in 4,466,727 cases, an unprecedented performance that the report described as proof of “judicial efficiency and effective court management.”

Primary courts with general jurisdiction accounted for the majority of cases, registering 3.69 million new filings and delivering 3.81 million rulings.

The strong performance contributed to a sharp drop in the backlog of unresolved cases, which fell by 20 percent from 721,092 in 2023 to 577,851 at the end of 2024.
