Summary/Abstract: Opinion provides an analysis of the admissibility of appeal against the activities of organizational units in relation to the reviewers who do not comply with the statutory deadlines for the preparation of the assessment of scientific achievements. Despite significant negative consequences of the review’s delay to the person pursuing a PhD degree or habilitation there are no legal instruments to ensure the fulfillment of the reviewers obligation to prepare the review within the statutory time limit. The current legal situation requires legislative intervention, because university employees are obligated to obtain a PhD degree within eight years from the date of employment, as a condition of further work at the university. Therefore real guarantees of the conduct of habilitation procedure in the statutory deadlines are necessary.
