In addition, the special provisions regarding the procedures relating to referrals filed under Article 113 of the Constitution of Kosovo are now reflected in Chapter VII of the Rules of Procedure.

With its authority to review legislation and individual complaints of rights violations, the Court is the ultimate check on legislative and executive power in Kosovo and the final arbiter of the meaning of constitutional provisions enshrining human rights and freedoms.
