Аннотация:The article analyzes the amendments to the Constitution that were adopted on July 4, 2020. The authors consider the changes concerning the legal status of the constitutional justice body in the Russian Federation and the Rus- sian Federation subject. The article analyzes the foreign experience of exercising the powers of these bodies to exercise preliminary constitutional control and the possibility of their power use in Russian judicial practice. The positive and negative aspects of preliminary constitutional control institution introduction into the Russian prac- tice are highlighted. The author also analyzes the experience of the Constitutional Supervision Committee of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics on the implementation of the authority to exercise preliminary constitutional control. The expansion of the RF Constitutional Court powers and, on the contrary, the narrowing of the consti- tutional (charter) court powers of the RF constituent entities is not the only change in the field of constitutional justice in the Russian Federation. In this regard, they considered the issue of changing the composition of the RF Constitutional Court and complicating the procedure for applying citizens with a complaint about violation of constitutional rights and freedoms. Thus, the author comes to the conclusion that there are temporary provisions in the Russian Federation Constitution.
