The Constitution provides that the Court be "charged with protection of constitutional rule" and as such its primary jurisdiction is to review and rule on questions of constitutionality. In this respect, it is similar in functionality to the Supreme Court of the United States, but is distinct from the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic. Of all the various levels of the Czech Judiciary it is the one created with the greatest specificity in the Constitution. The decisions of the Court are final, cannot be overturned and are considered a source of law, similar to precedents in a common law system.Although the Court itself was established only in 1993, its Czechoslovak predecessor was already provided for in the Constitution of 1920, making Czechoslovakia the first country in the world with a system of judicial review by a specialized court (although the court itself first convened after the Austrian one). It was later adopted by many other countries.
