The Court of Impeachment of the Realm is a special court of the Kingdom of Denmark, that the Danish Parliament can assemble, to hear and deliver judgments against ministers accused of unlawful misconduct and maladministration of office. According to the wording of the Constitutional Act, the Sovereign of Denmark can also demand that Ministers be impeached and brought before the Court of Impeachment. However, in practice only Government has this right.
