The Supreme Administrative Court rejected the administrative appeal filed by Emilio Serrano against a delegation of powers issued by the Director of Urbanization Services. The appellant argued that the delegation was ineffective because it lacked mandatory publication in the Official Gazette, yet the Director invoked this delegation to justify the contested act. The court held that such delegations from government members are legally ineffective without publication, rendering the Director's reliance on them invalid and the subsequent act unchallengeable.
