Шаблон:Politics of Uganda

The Court of Appeal of Uganda (also constituted as the Constitutional Court of Uganda) is the second-highest judicial organ in Uganda. It derives its powers from Article 134 of the 1995 Constitution. It is an appellate court when hearing cases appealed from the High Court of Uganda. However, it has original jurisdiction when adjudicating matters relating to the constitutionality of matters before it. All judgments by the Court of Appeal are theoretically appealable to the Supreme Court of Uganda, if the Supreme Court decides to hear the appeal.[1]

Location

The Court of Appeal of Uganda is located in Twed Towers, on the fourth floor, along Kafu Road, in the neighborhood called Nakasero, in the Central Division of Kampala, the capital and largest city in Uganda.[1] The geographical coordinates of the offices of the Uganda Court of Appeal are: 0°19'34.0"N, 32°35'01.0"E (Latitude:0.326111; Longitude:32.583611).[2]

Overview

The Court of Appeal of Uganda is headed by the deputy chief justice and has fourteen other justices. The quorum required for a court decision varies depending on the matters under consideration. When sitting as an appellate court in a civil or criminal matter, the required quorum is an odd number of justices, not less than three in number. When sitting to consider a constitutional matter, quorum is achieved by an odd number of justices, not less than five. In Uganda, the Deputy Chief Justice is not a member of the Supreme Court.[1]
