Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the Minister of Justice's extraordinary review against the Supreme Administrative Court's decision to reject a building permit application. The applicant argued the lower court's ruling constituted a gross violation of law, while the administration contended the decision was based on equal treatment and procedural correctness. The court ruled that an obvious error alone does not meet the high threshold for a gross violation, as overturning the decision would unjustly privilege one party over another without a clear legal basis.
