Abstract

This paper deals with relation between ordinary and constitutional judicial
procedures in constitutional complaint. Constitutional protection against individual
decisions of competent state authorities (mostly against decisions of ordinary courts)
has supplementary nature. Citizens and legal entities may initiate procedure before the
Constitutional Court only after exhaustion of ordinary legal remedies. Constitutional
procedure is new judicial procedure, but it must take into account previous ordinary
judicial procedures. It is new procedure because the Constitutional Court has the right
to implement its specifi c procedural rules. On the other hand, this procedure is old
one. From previous ordinary judicial procedure originates the constitutional dispute
and its proper settlement is not possible without conversance of this previous judicial
procedure.
