The Algerian legislator has granted, in addition to certain rights already granted to local or foreign economic agents, judicial guarantees to facilitate the resolution of any disputes that may arise. The state has thus established a middle ground between these two categories, despite objections from foreign economic agents regarding the national judicial system. These objections stem from several reasons, including lengthy procedures, high costs, and perceived infringement on sovereignty. The legislator has emphasized the referral of most disputes arising within the national territory to the local judiciary, despite the considerable difficulties faced by local courts in resolving such disputes due to the differing legal positions of the disputing parties. The effectiveness of the national judiciary in settling disputes brought before it is considered a fundamental guarantee for reassuring foreign investors in particular. This has paved the way for the establishment of specialized judicial centers, whose role is to adjudicate international trade disputes, as stipulated in Article 32 of the Code of Civil and Commercial Procedure, which also provides for the subjection of agency decisions to judicial appeal.The legislator also stipulated that in the case of unilateral actions of the economic aid, his liability is negated if the damage is not proven from him. As for the cause external to his will, the occurrence of the error or the severing of the causal relationship between the error and the damage is negated, and therefore there is no compensation. However, Algerian legislation, on the other hand, approved the right of the two parties to the dispute to resort to alternative methods before raising it to the judiciary in order to reduce the pressure on the local judiciary. Among these methods is arbitration, due to its effectiveness and adherence to it by the foreign aid and finding solutions, in addition to the modest cost compared to the local judiciary.
