Judicial control of elections in Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia - guarantee of stability or democratic legitimacy?
Original language description
Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia are relatively young democracies. Their constitutions are in force for 10 (Poland) to 15 years (Czech Republic and Slovakia). The boundaries of democratic and transparent election campaign are still not precisely defined in these countries. What is the role of top judicial bodies when dealing with elections in such environment? Before analysis of the relevant case-law, it is important to mention, that the system of judicial control of elections in all three countriesis slightly different. The most striking difference is in the court, which is deciding cases concerning parliamentary or presidential elections - in Poland it is the Supreme Court, in Slovakia the Constitutional Court, and in the Czech Republic it is theSupreme Administrative Court in the first stage and the Constitutional Court in the appellate stage.
