The Constitutional Court starts considering the lawsuit related to the suspension and annulment of the law “On Transparency of Foreign Influence”. It will hold a regulatory hearing on the case “President of Georgia, Institute for the Development of Freedom of Information”, JSC “Rights Georgia”, JSC “Civil Society Foundation” and others (a total of 122 plaintiffs) ), members of the Parliament of Georgia: Tamar Kordzaia, Ana Natsvlishvili, Levan Bezhashvili and others (a total of 38 MPs), LLC “Network of Information Centers” and JSC “Studio Monitor” against the Parliament of Georgia" [constitutional lawsuits #1828, #1829 , No. 1834, No. 1837].
The claimant believes that the adoption of the Law on Transparency contradicts the basic principles of the Georgian Constitution and hinders the process of Georgia joining the European Union, thereby violating the obligation defined by Article 78 of the Constitution of Georgia.
The authors of the constitutional lawsuits are also petitioning the Constitutional Court to suspend the validity of the disputed norms until the final decision is made
