Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the contentious appeal against a ministerial dispatch merely confirming a prior, unchallenged administrative act. The court held that such confirmatory acts possess no independent legal content and do not create, extinguish, or modify existing legal situations. Consequently, they fail to meet the requirements of being definitive and executable acts subject to judicial review.

SUMÁRIO

I - Os despachos meramente confirmativos de outros anteriores e não recorridos, porque não possuem conteudo proprio e autonomo, não criam nem extinguem direitos, nem por qualquer forma modificam situações juridicas ja definidas.

II - Não constituem, consequentemente, actos administrativos definitivos e executorios, não sendo, por tal, susceptiveis de impugnação contenciosa (cf. artigo

15 da Lei Organica do Supremo Tribunal Administrativo).
