Bayereljárás

Bayereljárás refers to a legal procedure in Hungary concerning the review of administrative decisions. It is a judicial remedy that allows individuals or legal entities to challenge the legality of a final administrative decision made by a public authority. This procedure is governed by specific laws, primarily the Code of Administrative Procedure.

The purpose of the Bayereljárás is to ensure that administrative decisions are made in accordance with the law and to protect the rights and legitimate interests of citizens and legal persons. It is not an appeal against the merits of the decision, meaning the court does not re-examine whether the decision was the most appropriate or fairest one. Instead, the court focuses on procedural errors, violations of substantive law, or abuse of power by the administrative body.

To initiate a Bayereljárás, a petition must be filed with the competent court within a prescribed time limit, usually 30 days from the notification of the final administrative decision. The petition must clearly state the grounds for challenging the decision and provide supporting evidence. The court then reviews the case, and if it finds that the administrative decision was unlawful, it can annul or amend the decision, or order the administrative body to reconsider the case. The Bayereljárás is a crucial mechanism for judicial oversight of administrative actions in Hungary.
