The Justices of the Constitutional Court shall be above partisanship and shall maintain judicial independence, trying cases free from any interference. The power of the Justices consists of providing rulings on the following three categories of cases: (1). Interpretation of the Constitution; (2). Uniform Interpretation of Statutes and Regulations; and (3). Declaring the dissolution of political parties in violation of the Constitution. The first two categories of cases above are handled through plenary meetings of the Justices. The third category, dissolution of political parties, are adjudicated formally by court proceedings.
