[ES] El Tribunal Supremo tiene su sede en Madrid y es un órgano jurisdiccional único en España con jurisdicción en todo el territorio nacional, constituyendo el tribunal superior en todos los órdenes (civil, penal, contencioso-administrativo y social), salvo lo dispuesto en materia de garantías y derechos constitucionales, cuya competencia corresponde al Tribunal Constitucional.

Fue creado en 1812 por las Cortes de Cádiz (Decreto de las Cortes, de 17 de abril de 1812) para ejercer las competencias establecidas por el artículo 261 de la Constitución gaditana.

En concreto, el Tribunal Supremo constituye la cúpula del sistema de impugnaciones y es, por tanto, el máximo responsable de la unidad de interpretación de la jurisprudencia en España. Se ocupa, entre otras cuestiones, de decidir los recursos de casación, revisión y otros extraordinarios, del enjuiciamiento de los miembros de altos órganos del Estado y de los procesos de declaración de ilegalización de partidos políticos.

[EN] The Supreme Court is based in Madrid and is the sole judiciary body in Spain with jurisdiction throughout the nation, being the highest court in all legal fields (Civil, Criminal, Contentious-Administrative and Labour), except as provided with regards to issues of constitutional guarantees and rights, the competence for which resides with the Constitutional Court. It was created in 1812 by the Cádiz Cortes (Decree of the Parliament of 17 April 1812) to exercise the powers established in Article 261 of the Constitution of Cádiz.

Specifically, the Supreme Court is the pinnacle of the appeals system and is therefore ultimately responsible for the uniform interpretation of jurisprudence in Spain. It takes care, inter alia, of judging appeals for reversal, reviews and other extraordinary cases, as well as the prosecution of members of upper institutions of the State and the processes for declaring political parties to be illegal.
