Justice should protect life, not bury it in bureaucracy.

Protection, civil registration, fair courts and reliable public administration have collapsed; people cannot depend on lawful safety or remedy.

A few scattered officials or local institutions remain, but justice capacity and protection are profoundly unreliable.

Courts, enforcement and documentation systems exist, yet major personnel, safety, integrity and procedural weaknesses prevent competent service.

Some institutions function, but serious gaps in legal identity, investigations, courts, public safety and impartial administration remain.

Basic civil and criminal justice, safety services, registration and public administration operate, though with important shortcomings.

Broad competent civil registration, protection, fair hearings and complaint services operate, with demonstrable staffing and oversight.

Integrated, independently accountable justice and public-safety services work across most regions, including timely fair adjudication.

Nearly all localities have resilient, adequately staffed, impartial justice, safety and administrative capability with accessible oversight.

Everyone has dependable, competent, impartial protection, legal identity, timely fair hearings, lawful investigation and enforceable remedies; failures can be corrected immediately when warranted.

Under 5% of the population can reliably access combined legal identity, protection and a usable remedy when needed.

Only 5–24% receive effective protection and access; most people are excluded geographically, financially or institutionally.

Only 25–39% have effective access to justice and institutional protection; substantial groups lack identity or routes to remedy.

Only 40–49% are effectively served by usable safety, identity and justice pathways; many eligible people cannot obtain redress.

At least 50% are effectively served by functioning complaint, identity and justice pathways; important access gaps remain.

Over 75% can practically access fair institutions and remedies; population coverage is evidenced beyond mere existence of courts or laws.

Over 75% are effectively covered by competent protection and remedies, including substantially reachable and affordable representation and administration.

Over 90% receive timely, usable, inclusive protection and justice; most administrative and justice services are accessible without material financial exclusion.

Everyone can obtain safe, timely, impartial protection, identity and enforceable remedy regardless of income, location, disability, gender or connections.

Arbitrary violence, detention, corruption and deliberate denial dominate; ordinary people face nearly insurmountable barriers.

Extreme bribery, extortion, fear, discriminatory enforcement and indefinite delay block most claims and ordinary administration.

Severe case backlogs, fees, arbitrary rules, corruption or geographic distance deny practical remedies to broad populations.

High representation costs, delays, administrative hurdles, intimidation and unequal treatment obstruct ordinary protection and redress.

Routine procedures exist but significant delays, uneven fees, complexity, information gaps and misuse of power remain.

Documented reductions in waiting, corruption, unnecessary fees, paperwork and unequal treatment make access materially easier.

Most avoidable delays, undue costs and arbitrary approvals have been removed; accessible complaint pathways consistently operate.

Few major systemic barriers remain; rapid hearing, legal aid, transparent decisions and timely enforcement are routine and independently testable.

No systemic arbitrary exclusion, bribery, unjustified delay or payment barrier prevents ordinary protection, fair proceedings or necessary documents; safeguards remain against abuse.

Institutions routinely fail to protect, correct error or enforce legitimate decisions; abuse largely persists without remedy.

Decisions rarely repair harm; victims, wrongly accused people and complainants seldom obtain effective protection or correction.

Remedies and lawful enforcement are inconsistent; misconduct and repeat harm continue with limited oversight.

Some decisions and safety interventions work, but many grievances, enforcement failures and institutional errors remain unresolved.

Basic remedies are enforceable and some misconduct is corrected; public safety and institutional reliability remain mixed.

Measured improvements in enforcement, victim protection, fair corrections and service reliability are sustained across reporting cycles.

Most lawful decisions are enforced promptly; independent review detects errors, protects rights and corrects substantiated misconduct.

Strong, demonstrable accountability, victim support, fair enforcement and prevention reduce repeat failure and restore confidence.

Durable public safety, enforceable rights and prompt independent correction are consistently demonstrated, including remedies against those in power.
