Faster rulings reduce court caseload

Greece's highest administrative court, the Council of State, has significantly reduced the average time required to resolve cases over two years, cutting it by nearly nine months. According to data from 2023 to 2025, the average case completion time dropped from 1,232.45 days in 2023 to 971.86 days in 2025, despite a slight increase in 2024. This improvement resulted from various reforms, such as implementing procedural filters for appeals, using council procedures for simpler cases, and optimizing the use of court staff. These efforts led to a consistent case clearance rate exceeding 110% annually, with the highest performance in 2024. Additionally, the number of pending cases decreased by 1,378 between 2023 and 2025.
