Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Administrative Court ruled that the administrative fine was not extinguished until formally approved by the director-general. The appellant argued the notification was insufficient and the liability should have ended earlier, while the respondent maintained the fine remained enforceable. The court held that the director-general's approval is a mandatory prerequisite for the fine's extinction, thereby upholding the appellant's claim against the premature termination of liability.
