The Serbian List filed another complaint with the Constitutional Court on Thursday, claiming that the Constitution and the Rules of Procedure of the Assembly were violated when the majority voted to elect Nenad Rašić as deputy speaker of the legislative body from the ranks of the Serbian community. This entity has requested the imposition of an interim measure, although the constitutional deadlines for the formation of the new Government have begun to run out.
Less than a week after the Assembly was fully constituted with the election of the fifth vice-president, the constitutionality of the process has been questioned by the Serbian List.
Representatives of this party filed a complaint with the Constitutional Court on Thursday regarding the election of the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly from the ranks of the Serb community. They did this with the claim that the Constitution, the Rules of Procedure of the Assembly, as well as the previous judgment of the Constitutional Court on the same issue, were violated.
"We have also requested the imposition of a temporary measure to stop unconstitutional actions that could cause irreversible damage," the Serbian List announced in a statement.
The ninth legislature was declared constituted on October 10, with the election of Nenad Rashiq as vice president from the Serbian community.
His election was made after the nine candidacies of the Serbian List were exhausted, with three rounds of voting each.

Serbian List complains again to the Constitutional Court
After none of the Serbian List MPs received a sufficient number of votes, the Speaker of the Assembly, Dimal Basha, requested that the election of the Serbian Deputy Speaker proceed through a draw, enabling the other Serbian MP, Nenad Rašić, who is from the For Freedom, Justice and Survival party, to be elected Deputy Speaker.
The Constitutional Court had previously addressed the complaint submitted by the Serbian List regarding the issue of deputy speakers, after the Speaker of the Assembly declared the Assembly constituted without electing a fifth deputy speaker from the ranks of the Serb community. In this case, the Court had found that the Assembly was not constituted, requiring the deputies to elect a deputy speaker from the ranks of the Serb community, in order to pave the way for the formation of the Government.
The Constitutional Court's decision stated that the proposal for the vice president from among the non-majority communities must be made by the majority or the largest number of deputies from among the Serb community, but did not allow a blocking veto.
A day after Rashiq's election, President Vjosa Osmani mandated the leader of the Vetevendosje Movement (LVV), Albin Kurti, to form a new government. He has 10 days to present the composition and program of the new government to the Parliament.
To elect a government, the affirmative vote of 61 MPs is required. In the general elections of February 9, the LVV won 48 seats in the 120-MP Parliament.

If Kurti fails to secure the necessary 61 votes by October 26, then Osmani, based on the laws, is obliged to invite all political parties to a consultation once again within 10 days and decide, at her discretion, on the new prime minister, if he proves to her that he has the numbers to form the Government.
The next prime minister must also have 15 days to present the composition of the government cabinet to the Assembly. If the government is not formed even after 40 days, President Osmani must call new elections.
