Legislator summary

AI generated

The Constitutional Court declared the appeal inadmissible because the procedural deadline for filing the action had expired. The applicant challenged a Supreme Court ruling on an insult charge, arguing a violation of constitutional rights, but failed to submit the request within the statutory period. The court rejected the claim solely on this procedural ground, emphasizing that the substantive merits were never examined due to the lapse of time.
