description A budget is a document that contains the estimates of public expenditures to be realized and the public revenues to be collected during the year in a country. The right to a budget is the right of the people to have a say in public revenues and public expenditures and to control them. One of the requirements for the proper provision of the right to budget is the effective control of the budgetary power exercised by parliaments. The constitutional judiciary, which functions as a check of the constitutionality of laws and is carried out by the Constitutional Court, plays an important role in ensuring that parliament acts in accordance with the principle of supremacy of the constitution. In the study, the concepts of budget and budget right are revealed, the nature and function of the constitutional judiciary are explained. In the second part of the study, general constitutional jurisdiction problems are spotted and suggestions are made in accordance with budget law. In the last part of the study, particular problems experienced in the constitutional jurisdiction due to the unique features of the budget law are determined and solutions are produced for them.
