Three new Judges of the Constitutional Court to be elected soon - Pashinyan
“The Speaker of the Armenian parliament signed today the laws on Making Amendments and Addenda to the Law on Constitutional Court,” Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan wrote on his Facebook page, adding: “The law will enter into force today. Three new judges of the Constitutional Court will be elected soon.”
To remind, the President of Armenia did not sign it during 21 days after passing the laws and did not dispute its constitutionality, and after running that term, the authority of signing the laws was transferred to the National Assembly Speaker.
To note, many experts denounced the legislative changes as unconstitutional that paved a way for replacement of the Constitutional Court head and three judges of the top court.
The judges removed from office have appealed the changes to the European Court of Human Rights.
