AI generated

The Supreme Administrative Court rejected the appeal contesting an administrative act based on a disciplinary nullity. The court distinguished between substantive nullities under the Administrative Procedure Law and procedural nullities defined in the Disciplinary Statute. Consequently, it ruled that procedural nullities cannot be invoked to challenge the validity of the administrative act under Article 28(1) of the Administrative Procedure Law.
