Types of decisions of the Electoral College

1. Depending on the cases to be examined, the Electoral College decides:

a) to dismiss the case;

b) to judge the merits of the case; or

c) to compel the CEC to make a decision. 

2. The Electoral College decides to dismiss the case when it finds that the appeal has been submitted beyond the time limits stipulated in this Code, or that the court lacks the competence to adjudicate it. When the Electoral College finds that it lacks competence, it forwards the case to the competent organ. 

3. In judging the merits of a case, the Electoral College decides on the full or partial acceptance of the appeal, or on its full or partial rejection. 

4. The Electoral College imposes an obligation on the CEC to make a decision in compliance with point 2 of article 145 of this Code. In this case, the Electoral College sets a fixed time limit of no longer than ten days for making a decision. 

5. The decision of the Electoral College is final. No appeal may be made against it. 

6. The Electoral College is required to prepare a final transcription of its decision not later than three days from the day the decision is given.
