Learning unit contents
The course aims to familiarize students with the different ways of resolving disputes with the administration. Administrative and judicial remedy are addressed from a practical perspective.
One of the specificities of this course is to talk about the consequences of judgments of the Council of State. The question is: is it possible to do a new administrative act when it is annulled and how to do it? In order to adopt an effective litigation strategy, it is essential to anticipate these problems by identifying them as early as possible.
Finally, the course will also talk about topics illustrating the 'latest trends' in administrative litigation, in particular the responsibility of the executive power and the reform of the Council of State in 2023.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
One of the course's aims is to make the students sensitive to the importance of elaborating an administrative litigation strategy. Theoretical thoughts (analysis of case law) and real-life cases are both discussed in the lecture (drafting of appeals).
