Constitutional Court lacks quorum, it cannot review political cases (Gazeta Express)
The work of the Constitutional Court is now blocked after the resignation of U.S. judge Robert Carolan. Sources told Express that the Court no longer has the required quorum to address political cases. “The Court currently has seven judges, but Mr. Kadri Kryeziu cannot participate in the addressing of political cases because he was dismissed from such cases after he was seen attending a PDK rally in the latest national elections,” a source told the news website. Express further notes that only Samuel Zbogar, the European Union Special Representative in Kosovo, can resolve the crisis because he has competencies to appoint another judge in Carolan’s position. “Mr. Zbogar is already trying to find an international judge,” a source from the Constitutional Court said.
