The Constitutional Court has announced its working decision on not accepting the parliament appeal on the termination of the Constitutional Court President Hrayr Tovmasyan's powers, News.am reports. 

The Constitutional Court, referring to the applicant's position that "... Hrayr Tovmasyan apparently committed acts that discredit the authority of the Constitutional Court and / or are incompatible with the post of judge - a substantial disciplinary violation", stated that the basis for the termination of a CC judge's powers is not a disciplinary violation but merely a disciplinary violation during his or her term in office as a judge of the Constitutional Court who qualifies as essential.
