The Judiciary of Colima is made up of the Supreme Court of Justice, the Judicial Council and specialized chambers. Given its size, the state operates with few judicial districts, with courts of first instance for civil, commercial, family and criminal matters, in addition to the structure of the accusatory system, concentrated in Colima, Manzanillo and Tecomán. Federal matters fall to the District Courts and Circuit Courts of the Thirty-Second Circuit, based in Colima. Los asuntos federales se ventilan por separado ante juzgados de distrito.

Colima maintains its own Civil Code and Code of Civil Procedure.
