In the judicial system of Japan, the Constitution of Japan guarantees that "all judges shall be independent in the exercise of their conscience and shall be bound only by this constitution and the Laws". They cannot be removed from the bench "unless judicially declared mentally or physically incompetent to perform official duties," and they cannot be disciplined by executive agencies. Supreme Court judges, may be removed by a majority of voters in a referendum that occurs at the first general election following the judge's appointment and every ten years thereafter; the judiciary was far more constrained under the Meiji Constitution than it is under the present Constitution and had no authority over administrative or constitutional law cases. Moreover, the Ministry of Justice had complete and direct control over the courts' administrative affairs. Nonetheless, Professor John Haley argues that the courts maintained complete independence in the adjudication of particular cases. "Judicial independence from the political branches was emphatically established as a fundamental principle of governance in Article 57 of the Meiji Constitution.

Of all branches of government only the courts exercised authority "in the name of the Emperor." Haley argues that this was and remains a matter of great pride for Japanese judges and notes that "placed prominently in all courtrooms was the inscription "in the name of the Emperor" as a meaningful reminder to imperial officials and subjects alike that the Emperor's judges were not subject to political control or direction."A key feature of Japanese courts is the emphasis on wakai settlements by mutual agreement of the parties, with no loser or winner. These settlements have the same effect as a court judgement. For example, in 2016, the District Courts issued 63,801 judgments and orders, 52,957 claims were solved by wakai settlement. In the Summary Courts, the numbers were 40,509 respectively. Courts in Japan were following the inquisitorial procedure, for example in a shirasu court in the Edo era, where the Chief Magistrate was the prosecutor. After 1890, Japan was influenced by the European inquisitorial style of French and German law, where judges and the prosecutor had the responsibility to find the fact and apply the law.

After 1948, the courts in Japan were influenced by the American adversarial system. Japan's court system is divided into four basic tiers. At the first of the four tiers of courts are the 438 summary courts, staffed by 806 summary court judges. Summary court judges are not career judges. Qualification as a regular judge is not required. Instead, summary court judges are formally nominated for pro forma cabinet appointment by a special selection committee formally comprising all Supreme Court justices, the President of the Tokyo High Court, the deputy procurator general, representatives of the bar, others "with special knowledge and experience, they handle small claims civil cases, as well as minor criminal offenses. They are only able to imprison defendants in a few special cases. Summary Courts are presided over by one judge. Civil cases in the Summary Court are appealed to the District Court, while criminal cases are appealed to the High Court. At the second tier are the district courts, the principal courts of first instance.

There are 50 district courts with additional 203 branches. Except for minor cases, which account for 80 to 90 percent of all adjudicated cases, trials require a three-judge panel; these are the principal court of first instance. District Courts have original jurisdiction in felony cases and in civil cases where the disputed amount is over ¥1,400,000, they handle bankruptcy hearings. Each District Court trial is presided over by at least one judge: two associate judges are called in for appellate cases from Summary or Family Courts, or for criminal cases where the maximum penalty would be in excess of 1 year in prison. Attorneys sit on either side of the courtroom. In a criminal case, the accused faces the judges from the rear of the courtroom; the witness box is in the center facing the judges. There are eight High Courts, they serve defined circuits of several prefectures each. There exists the Intellectual Property High Court in Tokyo, a special branch of Tokyo High Court. A High Court sits in the same manner as a three-judge District Court.

Each court is led by a President, appointed by the Cabinet. An appeal to a High Court is called kōso; the high courts are appellate courts for either kōso appeals from district court judgments, criminal judgments from summary courts, or, in civil cases tried in summary courts, second appeals limited to issues of law. At the apex of the judicial hierarchy is the Supreme Court, located adjacent to the National Diet Building; the "Grand Bench" of the Supreme Court has associate justices, who are appointed by the Cabinet with the Emperor's attestation. The Chief Justice is appointed to office by the Emperor; the Grand Bench is subdivided into three "Petty Benches" of five justices each, who hear incoming appeals and recommend them for an audience before the Grand Bench. An appeal to the Supreme Court is called jōkoku, requires either an error in the interpretation of the C
