Al momento in cui la Commissione di esperti rassegnava le sue conclusioni, già la Corte di cassazione aveva sollevato *eccezione di costituzionalità* davanti alla Corte costituzionale sulla legge elettorale Calderoli del 2005.

Can anybody help me with this? Thanks a lot!

constitutional BrE: plea AmE: defense


Explanation:
Methinks this is a plea of *unconstitutionality* , in the same as a 'eccezione di incompetenza' is a plea as to the jurisdiction e.g. want of jurisdiction: 'jurisdictional plea' Grazanti.

Example sentence(s):
  • Italy: This constitutional plea was introduced incidentally (in via incidentale: by way of interlocutory motion) before the Constitutional Court through three separate referrals: orders issued by the Supreme Court of Cassation..
  • USA: d) No Forfeiture. A party's failure to file and serve the notice, or the court's failure to certify, does not forfeit a constitutional claim or defense that is otherwise timely asserted.
