The Constitutional Court declared the appeal inadmissible, rejecting the request for suspension of proceedings. The applicants challenged a Supreme Court conviction for insulting the national flag, arguing violations of the presumption of innocence and equality principles regarding the disability penalty. The Court ruled that the ordinary legality principle governs such questions and found the constitutional demands lacked merit.
