Constitutional Law

In addition to direct applications to the Constitutional Court, Karınca Law Office presents individual applications on alleged rights violations—where ordinary remedies have failed—by setting out chronologically which freedom has been infringed.

This page provides general information about individual applications to the Constitutional Court and constitutional law.

Karınca Avukatlık provides services in advisory work and application preparation for individual application processes that may arise after ordinary legal remedies have been exhausted. The information is general in nature.

About Individual Applications

An individual application is a route to the Constitutional Court, after ordinary remedies have been exhausted, alleging that fundamental rights and freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution have been violated.

The grounds of the alleged violation, the chronology of events, and the admissibility requirements are important. Each file is assessed separately; no promise as to outcome is given.

Information Note

An individual application is not a substitute for ordinary appeal or cassation. Whether it is appropriate is examined according to the concrete decision and the file. Contact channels on the website may be used.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit for an individual application?

As a rule, the period runs after ordinary remedies have been exhausted and is regulated in the relevant legislation. It should be calculated based on the notification date of the concrete decision.

Can an application be made against every court decision?

No. Admissibility requirements, the alleged rights violation, and the remedies that must be exhausted are assessed. General information does not replace a concrete suitability assessment.
