Her Majesty's Court of Justice England and Wales are the civil and criminal courts responsible for the administration of justice in England and Wales; they apply the law of
England and Wales and are established under Acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom
Both criminal and civil courts primarily hear evidence and aim to determine what exactly
happened in a case. Broadly speaking, the lower courts decide matters of fact and the upper courts normally deal with points of law. The United Kingdom does not have a single unified judicial system - England and Wales have cne system, Scotland - another one, and the Northern Ireland - still another one. There are exceptions to this rule, for example in immigration law, the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal's jurisdiction covers the whole of the United Kingdom, while in employment law there is a single system of Employment Tribunals for England, Scotland and Wales (but not the Northern Ireland), The Court of Appeals, the High Court, the Crown Court, the Magistrates Courts, and the County Courts are administered by Her Majesty's Court Service, an executive agency of the Ministry of Justice
The House of Lords is the highest appeal court in almost all cases in England and Wales
The judicial functions of the House of Lords are entirely separate from its legislative role with only the Law Lords hearing the appeals from the Court of Appeal and the High Court. Its decisions are binding on all lower courts. The Constitutional Reform Act 2005 transferred these functions to the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom. The House is also the court of trial in impeachment cases, although impeachment in England is now archaic The Privy Council is the highest court of appeal for the UK in a number of areas of law,
particularly devolution matters. In addition, it is the highest court of appeal for a decreasing
number of Commonwealth countries, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. The judges who sit on the Privy Council are for the most part also members of the Appellate Committee of the House of Lords.
