Legislator summary

AI generated

The administrative court dismissed the appeal because the county council, having selected the municipality as a free municipality, did not submit the child custody decision to the district court for approval as required. The district court consequently did not examine the custody arrangement. The court ruled that the statutory procedure for free municipality trials mandates this specific submission step before any judicial review can occur.
