Legislator summary

AI generated

The Mark- och Miljödomstolen (MMD) quashed its own decision regarding a permit for a water power plant. The court found that the original ruling was flawed because it relied on a single judge without adequate technical expertise and failed to appoint a technical advisory body. Consequently, the case was remitted to the MMD for a new, properly constituted trial.

Vid avgörande av ett mål om tillstånd för vattenkraftverk har det, med hänsyn till målets omfattning och svårighetsgrad, inte varit tillräckligt med en lagfaren domare och ett tekniskt råd. Mark- och miljödomstolens dom har därför undanröjts och målet återförvisats till mark- och miljödomstolen för fortsatt handläggning.
