Abstract
In order to achieve a fair trial, the final judgments of the judicial authorities have been considered valid, according to which no organization can refuse to implement them except in legal cases, furthermore, these judgments prevent any re-examination of the same dispute. This will bring stability to the validity of judgments. In contrast to the validity of a judgment, sometimes its accuracy is also discussed, and sometimes its legitimacy. This credibility can also be examined from various aspects and the elements of its realization can be analyzed. Therefore, the present study aims to identify the concept of " judgment validity" using a descriptive-analytical method and a comparative perspective, seeking to answer the fundamental question of what are valid judgment and correct judgment? What are the types of judgment validity and what elements are required to establish this validity? On this basis, this article, while explaining the concept of a valid, legitimate, and correct judgment, examines the types of validity from a formal and material perspective and finally, it examines the constituent elements of this trust from the perspective of the law and the actions of the parties.
