In 2022, civil courts of the first instance in France resolved a pending case in about 333 days. According to the source, the European median was 239 days. By comparison, the duration time in administrative courts of first instance was about 314 days. In the same year, the clearance rate in administrative courts of first instance was 96 percent, which means that the court resolved fewer cases than the number that had been referred to it.
