The Supreme Constitutional Court (Arabic: المحكمة الدستورية العليا, Al 
Mahkama Al Dustūrīya El ‘Ulyā) is the highest judicial power. It alone 
undertakes judicial control in respect of the constitutionality of the laws 
and regulations and undertakes the interpretation of the legislative texts in 
the manner prescribed by law. In addition, the court is empowered to settle 
competence disputes between the judicial and the administrative courts. It 
was established by the Constitution of 1971 (Articles 174 to 178) and its 
functions were outlined by Law No. 48/1979 and its predecessor is the "محكمة 
جنايات الإسكندرية" (English: Alexandria Criminal Court) established in 1924.
