Administrative and Tax Law

In administrative law what is most often lost is not the case but the deadline. The sixty-day period running from service of an administrative act decides the outcome of many files before the merits are ever examined.

Annulment actions Annulment of administrative acts on grounds of unlawfulness as to competence, form, cause, subject matter and purpose; requests for stay of execution.

Full remedy actions Compensation for damage arising from an administrative act or action.

Civil service law Disciplinary investigations and penalties, appointment and dismissal procedures, personal entitlements.

Zoning and municipal acts Objections to zoning plan amendments, building permits and demolition decisions, zoning fines.

Tax Actions against tax assessments and penalty notices, settlement applications, correction and complaint procedures, objections to payment orders, lifting of attachments.

Order of application For certain acts, an application to the administration is mandatory before filing suit; skipping this stage may result in dismissal.
