Supreme Court Of Argentina

What Supreme Court Of Argentina does

The Supreme Court of Argentina (Corte Suprema de Justicia de la Nación) is the highest judicial body of the Argentine Republic and the final interpreter of the national constitution. Established in 1863 and seated at the Palacio de Justicia in Buenos Aires, it operates as a constitutional organ of the Judicial Branch with appellate and constitutional review jurisdiction over federal matters. It serves litigants, attorneys, lower courts, and the general public, and reports a workforce between 1,001 and 5,000 staff.

Its core offerings consist of public digital services rather than commercial products: a rulings database ("Sentencias") dating to 1863; administrative decisions ("Acordadas"); resolutions; the IWECS platform for remote electronic filing; the DEOX system for electronic dispatch; electronic judicial auctions ("Subastas Electrónicas Judiciales") launched October 2025; interactive statistical dashboards built on Tableau; the BGD children database; a femicide registry dashboard released in 2026; and an AI virtual assistant for the Oficina de Matrícula. The historical library exceeds 110,000 volumes and the Palacio de Justicia holds national heritage status.

Its "business model" is non-commercial. The institution is funded through Argentina's national public budget as part of the Judicial Branch and provides services to the public at no fee. There is no pricing model, go-to-market motion, or revenue per customer; strategic decisions are governed by Acordadas and constitutional mandate rather than market competition. Recent strategic posture has emphasized digitization of procedural workflows and transparency-oriented public dashboards.
