Summary/Abstract: The article contains a historical and legal outline, taking into account the evolution of the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Tribunal and the Supreme Administrative Court. The admissibility of initiating the judicial-administrative procedure against the decisions of the Regulatory Commission of the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church is closely related to the judgments of these bodies. The author concluded that, in accordance with the provisions of the Act on the State’s Relationship to the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church, the ruling of the Regulatory Committee should be recognized as an administrative decision issued in a single-instance procedure. Such a decision is a final one, against which a party has the right to lodge a complaint to a voivodeship (i.e. provincial) administrative court.
