Assuming that the question refers to Iran: The Ayatollahs demanded an Iranian Constitution guaranteeing the primacy of Islamic Law in Iranian governance and themselves as its proper interpreters. This is called "Wilayat al-Faqih" in Arabic, meaning "State of the Islamic Jurist".
If the question does not refer to Iran, it is worth noting that Ayatollahs in other countries such as Iraq and Lebanon have decided to support different political factions but not actually become ruling jurists.
