Constitutional Court might take longer to rule on elections

In related news, the chairman of the Constitutional Court, Pavel Rychetský, told Czech TV on Sunday that it was not certain that the Court decides on Thursday on whether early general elections can be held as planned. The court is set to hold a public hearing on Thursday about Mr Melčák’s complaint. Justice Rychetský said that the court is acting unusually fast and it might therefore take longer to decide on the complaint. If the complaint is rejected, the elections would be held as originally planned.
