The Armenian Court of Administrative Appeals (ACAA) is the highest judicial instance in the country of Armenia. It is presided over by the Right Honorable Lord Chief Justice Slobodan B. Iwanief.


Constitution


The Court consists of three Chambers.

The First Chamber is presided over by the court's president, Oh The Right Honorable Lord Chief Justice Slobodan B. Iwanief. First Chamber is responsible for appeals based on violation of basic rights set forth in the Armenian Constitution (there are few), in addition it provides oversight over the Armenian Intelligence Service (ZEROV) and serves as a court of first and only instance for crimes such as High Treason and Disturbing Propaganda. These special rights are exercised only in the state of national emergency; as it was declared to facilitate trials against leading members of Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia. Basentsi Azoyan was an honorary assessor during these trials.

The Second Chamber deals with appeals against convictions for traffic violations, while the Third Chamber occupies itself exclusively with disputes concerning pensions for government officials. Interestingly, Armenian Law provides to way to appeal against a criminal conviction. Calls for judicial review have been countered by Oh The Right Honorable Lord Chief Justice Slobodan B. Iwanief with the remark "You have to read the law - it is all in the books".
