The judiciary of the Laiatan is the system of courts that interprets and applies the law in the Laiatanese Federation.

The Laiatanese legal system is a common law based on case law, as compared to the civil law systems. Laiatan uses an adversarial system, where the role of the judge is primarily that of an impartial referee between the prosecutor and the defendant, as compared to an inquisitorial system, where the judges are actively involved in investigating the facts of the case.

The independence of the judiciary of Laiatan is historically older than democracy in Laiatan. The organization of courts is traditionally strong, and almost all federal and provincial actions are subject to judicial review.
