  • Some Recent Developments in The Tanganyika Judicial System

  • The attainment of independence by Tanganyika has brought about some major changes in the legislative provisions relating to the judicial system of the territory. The most important of these are the provisions relating to the High Court, and the integration of the Local Courts system with the High Court and subordinate courts system. The object of this article is to discuss these new measures, as well as to give a short description of a new project in Tanganyika for the unification of the customary law of the territory.
