Practical questions

Frequently asked questions

When can administrative action be challenged?

A challenge may be available where an authority acts without lawful power, ignores mandatory procedure, denies a fair hearing, reaches an irrational decision or otherwise violates an enforceable right. The precise remedy depends on the governing law and facts.

Is urgent interim relief available in public-law matters?

Potentially. The court considers jurisdiction, urgency, the apparent merits, balance of convenience and risk of irreparable harm. The supporting record should therefore be prepared promptly and carefully.
