The Constitutional Court of Kyrgyzstan was formerly the highest court of Kyrgyzstan's legal system.
Critics[1] argue that its politically charged judgement such as allowing President Akayev to re-run for President despite the Presidency being limited by term limits are evidence of a lack of judicial independence.
[2] The Constitutional Court was abolished in 2010 with the adoption of the new Constitution and its powers transferred to the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court.
[3] In 2021, however, the Constitutional Court was re-established as a result of a new version of the Constitution.
