The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the applicant's claim challenging the termination of a public procurement contract by the contracting authority. The applicant argued that the termination lacked legal basis and violated the principles of public procurement law, while the authority cited internal administrative discretion. The court held that a unilateral termination without statutory grounds or contractual justification constitutes an invalid administrative act, thereby rejecting the applicant's challenge.
