Abstract

Corruption is one of the factors that seriously harms social development, the rule of law, and public trust in the judicial system. The presence of corruption in civil court cases violates the principles of fair justice, causing social instability and legal uncertainty. In recent years, Uzbekistan has been implementing comprehensive reforms to combat corruption. In 2017, the Law "On Combating Corruption" was adopted, and in 2020, the Anti-Corruption Agency was established. Under the state program for 2023–2025, measures are being taken to digitize the judicial system, increase transparency, and ensure judicial independence. However, according to Transparency International’s 2023 report, many more reforms are still needed to improve transparency in the judiciary and prevent corrupt practices. International experience shows that digitizing judicial processes, introducing a system for evaluating judges' activities, and strengthening public oversight are crucial in reducing corruption. This article analyzes existing problems and solutions in preventing corruption in civil court cases. The judicial reforms implemented in Uzbekistan, international experiences, and technological innovations are examined, and proposals for reducing corruption are presented.
