Principles in the Law of Administrative Court Procedure – Some Aspects

Abstract

The article deals with some questions relating to the two main principles of the law on administrative court procedure. It starts with the presentation of the process of codification and the role of the principle of effective judicial protection played in it, as well as some implications of the right to a fair trial. These tasks of the court are highly interdependent. The second part of the article demonstrates these connections through the lenses of the seamlessness of judicial protection, the equality of arms and timeliness. Finally, the article sets these principles into a wider setting of interdependencies. Through the analysis of some new rules of administrative procedural law functioning as an ex-ante protection, it presents the new relationship of these two sets of  rules and the important task of the judiciary flowing from it, i.e. the creation of a new equilibrium.
