Analysis of the jurisprudence of Thailand's Constitutional Court
 |
As part of the 2003 Thai Update, Dr James Klein, Representative of the Asia Foundation in Bangkok, prepared a detailed paper analysing the decisions of the 15-member Constitutional Court of Thailand over the first five years of its existence. The 1997 Constitution established such a court for the first time in Thai history and in its first few years of existence it has had to deal with cases of vital national importance dealing with the dismissal of the then Deputy Prime Minister and the controversial 8 to 7 decision not to dismiss the current Prime Minister from office. Both cases concerned problems in the elected officials' declarations of assets.
