Supreme Court allows appeal against administrative decision voiding town council resolution due to statutory conflict.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland allowed the town's extraordinary review appeal against the Governor's supervisory decision voiding a town council resolution. The town argued that the lack of a deputy mayor position in the town statute violated the Municipal Self-Government Act, while the Governor held the statute could not legally establish such a position before its effective publication. The court ruled that the town statute is a derivative and complementary legal act to the Municipal Self-Government Act and cannot contain provisions contradicting it, thereby invalidating the Governor's reasoning.
