Amman: Acting President of Constitutional Court of Jordan (CCJ), Mohammad Mahadin, on Thursday received a Libyan delegation headed by Counselor Mohammad Abd al-Salam Mohammad, as part of his visit to the Kingdom to review its judicial and legislative experience.

Speaking at the meeting, Mahadin lauded the “deep-rooted” Jordanian- Libyan relations, affirming CCJ’s readiness to cooperate with Libyan authorities and exchange expertise.

Meanwhile, CCJ’s members gave a presentation on the court’s jurisdiction after its establishment in 2012.

The judges said CCJ’s jurisdiction covers constitutionality of Jordan’s laws and regulations in force and interpretation of the Constitution’s provisions and its role in protecting and upholding it, according to a court’s statement.

The two sides also discussed mechanism of access to the court in accordance with Jordan’s recently-endorsed constitutional amendments, the statement said.
