SummaryUnofficial

The Angolan Bar Association (OAA) sought a declaration that Presidential Decree No. 140/23 of 21 June, appointing a Justice of the Supreme Court to a vacancy reserved for career judges, and the CSMJ resolution designating him were unconstitutional, alleging breaches of the Constitution, the law and the competition rules. The Court dismissed the application, as the decree has individual and concrete content and is an administrative act, not a rule open to subsequent abstract review.
