Administrative Tribunal - Administrative Court

The Administrative Tribunal has authority in the first instance to hear and rule on:

  • appeals against individual administrative decisions issued by Government authorities, communes or certain other public legal entities;
  • direct appeals against administrative acts of a regulatory nature.

The president of the Administrative Tribunal has the authority to hear and rule on petitions aimed at implementing provisional measures within the context of appeals brought before the Administrative Tribunal ('administrative summary proceedings').

The Administrative Court has authority at the appellate level to hear and decide on appeals brought against the judgments of the Administrative Tribunal, barring certain exceptions in international protection matters. Nevertheless, the orders of the president of the Administrative Tribunal in administrative summary proceedings are not subject to appeal.

As with criminal and civil matters, no appeal may be made to the Court of Cassation against Administrative Court decisions on points of law.
