The article deals with a little-studied actual issue of Constitutional Law in Russia characterized by a scientific novelty. In the absence of a clear regulatory consolidation of the objects of normative control and ambiguities with the criteria of a legal act, in practice there are difficulties with their appeal to the appropriate court, and as a result the process of forming a judicial constitutionalism in Russia faces difficulties. The analysis is based on historical documents, laws of foreign countries and the existing legal proposition of the Constitutional Court, which had a real impact on the formation of the institute of normative control in Russia.
