It replaced the <a href="/wiki/Constitution_of_Uzbekistan_(1978)" class="mw-redirect" title="Constitution of Uzbekistan (1978)">Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan of 1978</a>. It is the <a href="/wiki/Supreme_law" class="mw-redirect" title="Supreme law">supreme law</a> of the Republic of <a href="/wiki/Uzbekistan" title="Uzbekistan">Uzbekistan</a> (Article 15).

As commander in chief of the armed forces, the President may declare a state of emergency or of war. The President is empowered to nominate a candidate of the prime minister for consideration of chambers of the Oliy Majlis and appoint full cabinet of ministers and the judges of the three national courts, subject to the approval of the <i>Oliy Majlis</i>, and to appoint all members of lower courts. The President also has the power to dissolve the parliament, in effect negating the <i>Oliy Majlis'</i>s veto power over presidential nominations in a power struggle situation.<sup id="cite_ref-cs_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cs-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The 150 deputies to the <a href="/wiki/Legislative_Chamber_of_Uzbekistan" title="Legislative Chamber of Uzbekistan">Legislative Chamber</a> (lower house) of the bicameral <i>Oliy Majlis</i>, the highest legislative body, are elected to five-year terms. The body may be dismissed by the President with the concurrence of the Constitutional Court; because that court is subject to presidential appointment, the dismissal clause weights the balance of power heavily toward the executive branch. The 100-member <a href="/wiki/Senate_of_Uzbekistan" title="Senate of Uzbekistan">Senate</a> includes 16 directly nominated by the President. The <i>Oliy Majlis</i> enacts legislation, which may be initiated by the President, within the parliament, by the high courts, by the procurator general (highest law enforcement official in the country), or by the government of the Autonomous Republic of <a href="/wiki/Karakalpakstan" title="Karakalpakstan">Karakalpakstan</a>. Besides legislation, international treaties, presidential decrees, and states of emergency also must be ratified by the <i>Oliy Majlis</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-cs_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cs-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The national judiciary includes the <a href="/wiki/Constitutional_Court_of_Uzbekistan" title="Constitutional Court of Uzbekistan">Constitutional Court</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Supreme_Court_of_Uzbekistan" title="Supreme Court of Uzbekistan">Supreme Court</a>, and the High Economic Court. Lower court systems exist at the regional, district, and town levels. Judges at all levels are appointed by the President and approved by the <i>Oliy Majlis</i>. Nominally independent of the other branches of government, the courts remain under the effective control of the executive branch. As in the system of the Soviet era, the procurator general and his regional and local equivalents are both the state's chief prosecuting officials and the chief investigators of criminal cases, a configuration that limits the pretrial rights of defendants.<sup id="cite_ref-cs_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cs-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Part_I._Fundamental_principles">Part I.
