In administrative law cases, provincial and territorial courts can review the decisions of provincial and territorial administrative tribunals to ensure that they were fair and reasonable, and that they complied with the law. The courts can also overturn decisions that are found to be errors of law or procedural fairness violations.
Here is an example of Administrative law:
- A business owner who was denied a business license by the City of Toronto challenged the decision in the Ontario Divisional Court. The Court found that the City had made an error of law and ordered the City to reconsider the application.
If you are involved in an administrative law case, you may have the right to appeal the decision to a provincial or territorial court. If you are considering appealing a decision, it is important to seek legal advice to understand your rights and options.
In addition to their role in reviewing the decisions of administrative tribunals, provincial and territorial courts also play a role in developing and shaping the law in these areas. The courts do this by issuing judgments that interpret and apply the relevant legislation and regulations.
The role of provincial and territorial courts in administrative law is essential to ensuring that these bodies act fairly and reasonably, and that the rights of individuals and businesses are protected.
