Turkmenistan has no constitutional court, and the Constitution assigns constitutional supervision to the Halk Maslahaty and the President rather than to a judicial body. All judges are appointed by the President, and there is no security of tenure independent of that appointment. Published case law is not available, so this entry records the statutory framework only and should not be read as evidence of an accessible or independent forum.
