The Appeal Chamber opened on 30.06.2025, at 12:30, the public hearing of case (JR) 11/2023, dated 10.03.2023, pertaining to the appeal of the Public Commissioner against decision no. 607, dated 22.12.2022 of the Independent Qualification Commission, related to the assessee Kledian Llaho.
The presiding judge announced that Article 179/b, paragraph 8 of the Constitution of the Republic of Albania and Article 199, paragraph 2 of the of Civil Procedure Code have set forth the transfer of powers from the Public Commissioner to the Head of the Special Prosecution Office.
During the verification of the presence of the parties, the presiding judge noted the absence of the representative of the Head of the Special Prosecution Office, Mr. Klodjan Braho, and informed that on 27.06.2025, Mr. Altin Dumani had requested in writing the postponement of the public hearing to another date, due to the objective impossibility of Mr. Braho to participate in today’s hearing, due to an official visit abroad.
The presiding judge also noted the absence of the assessee, Mr. Kledian Llaho. Av. Elis Bilali appeared at the hearing, stating that since Mr. Kledian Llaho was unable to participate in today’s hearing for family reasons, he had appointed him as his legal representative. In this context, Mr. Bilali filed an act entitled “Notice”, dated 28.06.2025, by which the assessee notified the trial panel of the impossibility of participating in the hearing and the appointment of Av. Elis Bilali as his legal representative.
After the trial panel decided to postpone the hearing to 04.07.2025, at 11:30, Mr. Elis Bilali requested a postponement of the hearing to a later date, in order to be acquainted with the appeal and the case.
After being consulted, the trial panel assessed that:
– The assessee had submitted no written act to prove the reason for his inability to participate in the hearing;
– Av Elis Bilali was not provided with a special power of attorney allegedly issued by the assessee and, as a result, could not be legitimized to submit procedural requests in this public hearing.
Under these terms, the trial panel decided to continue the trial of the case on 04.07.2025, at 11.30, requesting the assessee to take the necessary measures if he wishes to attend in person or if he will be represented by a legal representative in accordance with the requirements of the legislation in force.
The public hearing shall take place at the premises of the Appeal Chamber, at Boulevard “Dëshmorët e Kombit”, no. 3, Tirana.
