Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court allowed heirs to file a civil suit to determine that a 1944 land reform transfer to the state was invalid. The heirs argued the transfer lacked legal basis, while the administrative court rejected their claim as a civil matter. The court ruled that since the property passed to the state by operation of law, only a civil judgment can overturn this automatic transfer.
