Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court ruled that selecting a person to sign a housing rental agreement is not an administrative act subject to the Chief Administrative Court's jurisdiction. The Court determined that the Housing Act creates a civil relationship rather than a subjective right to force a contract, distinguishing between providing housing and guaranteeing a specific unit. Consequently, the Ombudsman's request to clarify the legal nature of this selection process was rejected as the matter falls under civil law.
