The Constitutional Court of Kosovo has decided to merge into a single procedure the legal requests submitted by Prime Minister Albin Kurti and 30 lawmakers from Vetëvendosje Movement regarding the decree issued by President Vjosa Osmani.
The court’s Secretary General, Veton Dula, confirmed that both submissions will be examined together because they concern the same legal matter.
“The request of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo regarding the president’s decree has been merged with the request submitted by members of the Assembly of Kosovo due to the identical subject of the case,” Dula told RTV21.
Two Requests, One Constitutional Case
According to the Constitutional Court, Prime Minister Kurti submitted his request on March 7, challenging the legality of the presidential decree. The court had initially asked relevant parties to submit their comments by March 11, 2026.
However, on March 9, the court also received a separate request from 30 deputies of the Assembly of Kosovo belonging to the Vetëvendosje Movement, addressing the same issue.
Given that both requests focus on the same constitutional question, the court decided to combine them into a single case.
New Deadline for Submissions
Following the decision to merge the cases, the Constitutional Court sent a new notification to the involved parties, requesting that their comments be submitted by March 12, 2026.
The case is part of the ongoing institutional dispute over the decree issued by President Vjosa Osmani, which has triggered legal and political debates in Kosovo regarding its constitutionality.
