The Supreme Court set aside a lower court decision dismissing a neighbor's complaint about garage windows built too close to her property. The court found that the existing garage structure objectively violated current building safety regulations regarding distance and ventilation requirements. Consequently, the administrative authority was ordered to issue a new decision mandating the removal of the windows to restore compliance with the law.
