The Supreme Court dismissed the political party's cassation appeal regarding its deregistration from the electoral register due to failure to submit a financial report by March 31. The party argued that its internal statute extended the deadline to May 31 and that the penalty violated constitutional freedoms and international treaties. The court held that internal party statutes cannot override mandatory public law obligations and confirmed the deregistration decision was consistent with the Constitution.
