Opinia prawna na temat projektu ustawy o zmianie ustawy – Prawo o postępowaniu przed sądami administracyjnymi
Legal opinion on a bill to amend the Act – Law on Proceedings before Administrative Courts (Sejm Paper no. 1633)

Summary/Abstract: According to the author, the proposed amendment requires further legislative changes. Introduction of an extended possibility for administrative courts to adjudicate on merits of the case does not violate Article 184 first sentence of the Constitution and is an evidence of a more comprehensive implementation of the constitutional right to a trial (Article 45 (1) of the Constitution). In the authors view, the technical and legal premises of adjudicating by administrative court (provided for in the new Article 145a and in currently existing Article. 154 §2 of the Act should be made uniform in a reforming way. He expresses concern that an assessment requirement (referring to the “nature of the case”) contained in would not encourage administrative courts to issue decisions on merits of the case. Moreover, the author points out that the phrase “circumstances of the case” should be clarified.
