A look at the approaches of the justice system of Kermanshah In the proceedings of some judicial cases (1306-1320 AS)

The first Pahlavi era was accompanied by structural reforms in the judicial system and the establishment of a modern judiciary. Among the provincial branches, the Kermanshah Judiciary faced numerous challenges, such as the influence of local powers and the issuance of unjust verdicts. On the other hand, the central judiciary served as the higher authority, playing a significant role in reviewing and amending the decisions issued by provincial branches, particularly Kermanshah.
This research examines the performance of the Kermanshah Judiciary in handling judicial cases and analyzes the role of the central judiciary in the appeal process and its strengths and weaknesses. The study adopts a descriptive-analytical method based on historical documents and archival materials to investigate the mechanisms of adjudication in the Kermanshah Judiciary and evaluate the role of the central judiciary in the appeal process.
Main Research Question: To what extent was the Kermanshah Judiciary successful in adjudications, and how did the central judiciary influence the process of reviewing and amending verdicts?
Research Findings: Although the Kermanshah Judiciary was successful in some cases and upheld principles of justice, the influence of powerful individuals and local officials, despite inefficient structures, led to the issuance of unjust decisions. In such cases, the central judiciary, through the appeal process, intervened to correct unjust verdicts or overturn them. However, during the judicial process, the pursuit of rights and justice was often undermined by political, social, and unfair pressures.
