10.11.2015

In the session held on 10 November 2015, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Kosovo deliberated and unanimously granted an interim measure in case KO130/15, in the referral submitted by the President of the Republic of Kosovo “Concerning the assessment of the compatibility of the “Association/Community of Serb majority municipalities in Kosovo – general principles/main elements” with the spirit of the Constitution, Article 3 [Equality Before the Law], paragraph 1, Chapter II [Fundamental Rights and Freedoms] and Chapter III [Rights of Communities and Their Members] of the Constitution of the Republic of Kosovo”.

The Constitutional Court has issued and published its decision on interim measure, suspending the implementation of any further legal actions on the basis of these “general principles/main elements” of the Association/Community of Serb-majority municipalities in Kosovo pending the Court’s review of the compliance with the Constitution of these Principles.

This decision on interim measure is without prejudice to any further decision which will be rendered by the Court on the admissibility or merits of the referral.

The Constitutional Court of Kosovo was established in January 2009.

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.
