The High Council of Justice (KLD) (Albanian: Këshilli i Lartë i Drejtësisë) was a constitutional authority in Albania headed by the President. [1][2]
The council was established on April 1992, following changes in the country's constitutional provisions. It tries to maintain balance in the Albanian legal system. Its activities are predicated by the current Constitution in Section 9 thereof, while the structure is determined primarily by Article 147.
The KLD was dissolved in April 2017 following the entry into force of the new justice reform, which took place in the country.[3] In December 2018, the High Council of Prosecutors and the High Judicial Council were formed, which would take many of the KLD's powers.[4][5]
