The Constitutional Court of the Republic of Kosovo was visited by the newly appointed prosecutors of the tenth generation, within the initial training program organized by the Academy of Justice of Kosovo.

The new prosecutors were received at the meeting by the judge of the Constitutional Court, Mr. Nexhmi Rexhepi, who initially informed them about the history of the establishment of the Court and the competencies of this institution, about the composition of constitutional judges over the years, as well as about the process of their selection.

Relations with the regular judiciary, the process of filing referrals and the procedures for dealing with cases, as well as the application of the practice of the European Court of Human Rights in the decision-making of the constitutional judges, were among other topics on which Judge Rexhepi focused during his presentation.

The new prosecutors expressed their interest in being informed in more detail about the functional independence of judges and the differences with the functional independence of prosecutors, about how the immunity of judges and prosecutors is regulated in constitutional and legal terms, as well as about the relationship of supremacy between the Constitution of the country and international conventions.
