The fact that commercial courts in Istanbul operate dispersedly in different courthouses has been a matter of debate in judicial circles for a long time. The fact that the same case could be reopened in different courthouses with changes in address or title both increased the workload of the courts and damaged the unity of decision in commercial trials. The step to eliminate this situation was taken with the new regulation of the Ministry of Justice.

DISTRIBUTED STRUCTURE WAS CREATING PROBLEMS

There are a total of 44 Commercial Courts of First Instance in Istanbul, 22 in Çağlayan Courthouse, 8 in Bakırköy Courthouse, 13 in Istanbul Anatolian (Kartal) Courthouse and 1 in Küçükçekmece Courthouse. It is stated that since the courts are located in different courthouses, some companies can change their headquarters address or title in the trade registry and reopen the same case in another courthouse in order to prevent a decision against them. While the separate courthouses caused the files to not overlap exactly in the UYAP system, cases with the same content appeared to be new cases in the system.

MINISTER GÜRLEK ANNOUNCED THE PROJECT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE NEWS

Minister of Justice Akın Gürlek, in the program he attended on A Haber, made statements about the projects being worked on in order to carry out judicial services more effectively and quickly, and stated that gathering the Commercial Courts in a single building was one of these projects. Gürlek announced that the application would be launched in Istanbul as a pilot province.

COMMERCIAL COURTS WILL BE GATHERED UNDER ONE ROOF

Stating that Istanbul is a commercial city in A Haber Live broadcast, Gürlek said, “The world’s trade revolves here. Commercial courts are very important courts. We have very big cases here. We are planning to establish a pilot in Istanbul, I think of gathering all commercial courts in one place, in a single building. Now, what will be the benefit of this for us? There are commercial courts in Anadolu Courthouse, Çağlayan Courthouse, Bakırköy Courthouse, Küçükçekmece Courthouse. Many It is messy. Now the citizen cannot get a decision, he goes to the Anatolian Courthouse. All commercial courts will be in a complex, the location is unknown, and our commercial judges will work in these buildings separately from the courthouse. This will prevent the process from being prolonged, especially in commercial cases, and will provide uniformity. We are planning to launch this process as a pilot in Istanbul soon.”

THE DECISION WAS MADE BY HSK

After Minister Gürlek’s statements, the process gained momentum. After the meeting held by the General Assembly of the Council of Judges and Prosecutors, a decision was made to gather the Commercial Courts under a single building. Thus, the project moved from the decision stage to the implementation process.

LOCATION WILL BE DETERMINED IN ISTANBUL

In line with the decision taken, it was learned that work has been initiated to determine the building where the commercial courts will be located in Istanbul. After the location determination is completed, it is aimed to put the new structure into operation and to end the physical disorganization in commercial trials. Commercial courts are expected to be established in a region close to the financial center.
