The term "Court of Cassation" refers to the highest appellate court in some legal systems, including France and Italy. Its primary function is to review lower court decisions to ensure they are in accordance with the law and to correct any errors in the interpretation or application of the law. The Court of Cassation focuses on legal issues rather than re-evaluating the facts of the case.
