Abstract

 This article analyzes judicial practices in environmental litigation and evaluates the extent to which judicial independence affects the outcome of such cases. Environmental disputes often involve powerful economic interests versus public and ecological rights, raising concerns about impartiality and accountability in court rulings. Drawing on national and international case studies, the article examines legal consistency, transparency, and independence in adjudicating environmental matters. Recommendations are offered to strengthen the rule of law and judicial integrity in environmental justice systems.
