AI generated

The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the appeal filed by a private individual against a municipal president's order to execute public works. The court found the order legally non-existent because it relied on a delegation of powers that was invalid and lacked the necessary legal object. Consequently, the act was deemed unsuitable for judicial review as it did not possess the definitive and enforceable nature required for contentious proceedings.
