According to Article 170 of the Constitution, judges of courts are obliged to refrain from enforcing regulations contrary to Islamic laws and regulations. In the form of descriptive-analytical research, based on the application of the phrase "judges of courts" in this principle, the Statute of the Administrative Court of Justice in the Iranian judicial system and the procedure of that Court, proved that the judges of the branches of the Administrative Court of Justice are subject to this principle and obliged to refrain from enforcing such during their proceedings. In this regard, according to Article 11 of “the 2013 Law on the Organization and Procedure of the Administrative Justice Court” that obligated the convicts in the branches of this courts to observe the provisions of the court's decision in their subsequent decisions and actions, it was concluded that, contrary to the supervision of other judges, if the judges of the branches of the Administrative Justice Court find the regulations to be contrary to the Islamic laws and regulations, in some cases it will be possible to invalidate them in general, which was referred to as the "implicit Revocation of Government regulations". However, this situation is inconsistent with the interpretive competence of other judges of the courts in Article 73 and the wording of Article 170, which states that "the effect of the supervision of the judges of the courts is occasional".

The ambiguity regarding the concept considered by the members of the Review Council of the term "issuing referendum" in Article 110(3), has led to this fact that the real role of the Leader in referendum process and the scope of his authority over the types of referenda has remained vague. In this research, it was attempted to explain the concept of the term "issuing of the referendum" based on an intentionalist approach and in the form of descriptive-analytic studies, in order to explain the authority of the Supreme Leader in the process of substantive and legislative referenda. Analyzing the discussions of the members of the Review Council and considering other relevant indications, it could be argued that the term "issuing of the referendum" was intended to identify the practical action of Imam Khomeini in issuing the decree on the beginning of the process of the "Constitutional Revision Referendum" and it should be considered as the Replica of the first sentence of Article 177. Therefore, this authority of the Supreme Leader does not extend to referendum subject to Article 59 of the Constitution.
