The article focuses on the issue of the legal status of a non-profit organization, whose statutory purpose is to protect animals in the administrative proceedings under Art. 7 (3) of the Polish Animal Protection Act, which is the subject of discrepancy of interpretations in the jurisprudence of administrative courts. The institution of temporary collection of an animal regulated in Art. 7 (3) of the Polish Animal Protection Act is of fundamental importance for humanitarian protection of animals in Poland. In theory it consists of taking away the mistreated animal from its owner and subsequent confirmation of that fact through the administrative decision issued by the executive body of the municipality. The study deals with the problem of its legal interest in the proceedings and, as a consequence, it analyses its position as a party or entity as a party in the proceedings. Determining the status of a non-profit organization in proceedings is crucial for resolving another problem raised in the article, namely the mode in which proceeding under Art. 7 (3) of the Polish Animal Protection Act is being initiated.

Jurisprudence of administrative courts on various aspects of real property law is extensive and multi- faceted. The main bulk of cases concerns real properties which are subject to the reprivatisation process that, in the absence of final solutions to re-privatisation predicaments and the multi-faceted effects of the Decree of 26 October 1945 on the Ownership and Use of Land Within the Boundaries of the Capital City of Warszawa, hereinafter referred to as the “Warsaw Decree” (promulgated in the official journal “Dziennik Ustaw” of 21 November 1945, No 50, item 279), which remains in force for over seventy years, are often the subject of judicial review of administrative decisions. Administrative court rulings play a significant role in real property cases and set the directions for future decisions by public administration bodies. The analysis of judicial rulings in real property cases will be limited to selected problems, which, given differing interpretations, are the cause of discrepancies in judicial decisions in administrative courts. This paper, which is the first part of the study, covers jurisprudence on the premise of death of a party during administrative proceedings, which has an impact on the potential invalidity of a decision and its ex tunc effects as well as the status of a party in real property proceedings.

Positive Results

The need to introduce the institution of mediation in the domestic legal system is based on the positive results of the practical application of the institution of reconciliation in many countries around the world, which indicates its effectiveness. The use of an alternative, non-judicial way of resolving disputes, particularly, mediation, will provide an opportunity to solve the problem of court congestion. The article is devoted to the research of the introduction of the practice of settling administrative disputes through the mediation procedure in Ukraine. The problematic issues that need to be regulated in the legislation have been identified, that are principles and procedure for conducting mediation: from its initiation to the moment of termination; the legal status of the mediator, particularly, the conditions for acquiring the status of a mediator, the content of his rights and obligations, liability for violation of the law on mediation, as well as the categories of disputes in which it can be used. The feature of administrative proceedings is that one of the parties in the dispute is the subject of power. Thus, the feature of alternative dispute resolution, in particular mediation, in administrative proceedings is the peaceful settlement of relations between a state agency, on the one hand, and with a natural or legal person, on the other. There are several possibilities for legalization of the status of a mediator: the first is the implementation of mediation by professional independent mediators (for example, members of a professional association of mediators); the second is judicial mediation: or the settlement of a dispute with the participation of a judge. The issues of determining the categories of cases in which mediation can be used, in particular administrative disputes, remain unresolved. Resolving these issues will help expand the practice of mediation in the settlement of administrative disputes.

The Status

The purpose of this study is to analyze the legal status and accountability of Baitul Maal Wat Tamwil (BMT) as a financial institution in Indonesia, because so far BMT has two main functions,  the first, Baitul Maal as a non-profit institution that distributes zakat, infaq and alms, and the second, Baitul Tamwil is an institution whose function is to collect and to distribute commercial funds. This research uses normative research using a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The results of this study indicate that the legal status of BMTs so far can only be established with the status of a cooperative or limited liability company. It refers to the characteristics possessed by BMT itself. The form of BMT accountability follows the form of liability that exists in the form of a BMT legal entity, if the loss is caused by the management or organs, the management or organs are jointly and severally responsible, but otherwise if the management or organs can prove then the management or organs are not jointly responsible for the losses incurred by BMT.

Subjective Rights

Abstract This article refers to the issues associated with the crucial significance of the interpretation of tax law provisions made by administrative courts in the course of the judicial inspection of tax decisions, within the context of protecting the subjective rights of taxpayers. The analysis in that regard has been prepared based on the provisions of art. 153 of the Act of 25 July 2002 on Proceedings before Administrative Courts, which expresses the important rule of binding the court and the administrative authority, whose act was the subject of an appeal, with a legal assessment and instructions regarding the further proceedings described in the decision of the administrative court. As a result of this rule, a decision of an administrative court exerts the results exceeding the scope of judicial administrative proceedings, while its effect also covers the future tax proceedings. If the legal assessment made by the court refers to the regulations that affect the subjective rights of a taxpayer, it means that the administrative court imposes the effects of “its” interpretation of those provisions on a tax authority. In turn, the tax authority is obliged to respect those rights in accordance with the opinions of the court, which usually affects the final resolution of a tax case. It should be borne in mind that a taxpayer, by submitting an appeal against a tax decision to an administrative court, demands not only an inspection of the acts of tax administration, but also - which should be emphasized - demands the execution of its rights, including its subjective rights. Therefore, we should not forget the crucial role of the administrative courts in the protection of the substantive rights of taxpayers. The instrument that allows the administrative courts to guard the subjective rights of taxpayers, consists in the procedural regulations included in the provisions on proceedings before administrative courts, and in particular art. 153 of the Act on Proceedings before Administrative Courts in Poland.

The article is devoted to the analysis of general theoretical aspects of determining the administrative and legal status of administrative courts as subjects of interaction with public administration bodies. The basis of the study were modern scientific developments on the subject, as well as current national legislation. The article reveals the category of "status". The essence of the legal status as one of the varieties of the general status of the subject (person, authority, etc.) is analyzed. Scientific approaches to the administrative and legal status are analyzed. The current administrative and legal status of administrative courts in Ukraine is determined. It is concluded that the administrative and legal status of administrative courts is the legal status of administrative courts determined by the norms of administrative law, which consists of a set of elements, the determining factor among which is instance and territorial jurisdiction for public law disputes, one of the parties of which is a public authorities. It was found that among the features of the administrative and legal status of administrative courts as subjects of interaction with public administration authorities should be noted: 1) does not contain the traditional division of elements into rights, freedoms, responsibilities, and is answered only by the competence in the relevant jurisdiction; 2) administrative jurisdiction, according to current legislation, is differentiated into institutional and territorial; 3) is regulated not only by substantive but also by procedural rules of law; 4) consider cases of administrative jurisdiction, in which public administration authorities may act as one of the parties, and administrative courts may interact with these bodies outside the court process.

The Right

Pursuant to the art. 78 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland each party has the right to appeal against  judgments and decisions issued in the first instance. The Constitution also stipulates that administrative courts control the activity of administration in at least two-tier proceedings. Pursuant to the above, in Poland, decisions are issued in two-tier general administrative proceedings and may be subject to review in two-tier court administrative proceedings. The number and structure of procedures of appeal against administrative decisions have been a subject of discussion for years. Criticism of the current solution comes, among others, from local self-government representatives whose bodies issue the largest number of decisions in Poland. These issues have recently become even more relevant due to statutory obligation of reviewing Polish legislation in terms of legitimacy of reducing the number of administrative instances. The subject of the study is an analysis of possibility and purposefulness of limiting the number of instances in the administrative procedure, conducted on the example of a procedure for reviewing decisions of local self-government bodies. The reflection was made taking into account systemic and procedural position of Self-Government Boards of Appeal.

Part I of this Note describes the NCAA’s formation and its contemporary model. It also discusses the antitrust and labor law challenges the NCAA has faced inlitigation over its existing approach. Part II explores the twin challenges posed by the Fair Pay to Play Act, which cannot be sufficiently addressed through a unilateral NCAA response. The first challenge is the inconsistency in state laws, which undermines any NCAA response that seeks to impose a uniform set of rules across the country. The second is that the Fair Pay to Play Act fails to address existing legal challenges to the NCAA’s amateur model. Therefore, even if the NCAA accepts a change in the status quo, it misses an opportunity to address the increasingly uncertain broader legal status of its restrictions on college athlete compensation. In response to these challenges, Part III contends that the NCAA should more urgently pursue a comprehensive federal legislative compromise that sacrificesrestrictions on NIL compensation in return for statutory protections from further labor and antitrust litigation. This type of federal legislation would have theadditional benefit of preempting state laws on the subject, thus maintaining a uniform system of rules. By losing the battle to win the war, the NCAA will be well positioned for continued viability in the coming decades

The article is focused on the analysis of the state of caselaw on implementing administrative proceedings for electoral disputes. The scientific achievements of scholars and the caselaw of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, the Supreme Court, courts of the I and II instances, as well as administrative legislation have been studied. It has been found out that elections have social value, so they are an important part of society, characterize the degree of democratization of the state and are aimed at implementing the constituent power of the people, ensuring active participation of citizens in political life of the state, creating conditions for bringing citizens closer to power. The authors have revealed the mechanism, which assists citizens to exercise their right to administer public affairs, to form the system of state authorities. It has been emphasized that it can be realized only if there is an effective electoral system and democratic principles and procedures for the formation of representative agencies of state power and local self-government agencies, proper legislative regulation of the status of all subjects of the electoral process. The authors have offered to consider the activity of administrative courts on ensuring judicial protection of election participants as a guarantee of observance of their constitutional rights, since administrative courts both resolve public disputes related to the election process and reduce social tensions in the state. It has been established that the scientific and practical elaboration of caselaw on the implementation of administrative proceedings for election disputes becomes especially relevant given the modernization of the electoral legislation of Ukraine. Problematic issues of caselaw on the implementation of administrative proceedings for election disputes have been revealed.

The right to go to court, including administrative, is one of the most important rights of citizens guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of Ukraine. In addition to the general constitutional right to judicial protection, in particular, Art. 7 of the Law of Ukraine «On the Judiciary and the Status of Judges» of 02.06.2016 № 1402-VIII, guarantees everyone the protection of his rights, freedoms and interests within a reasonable time by an independent, impartial and fair court established by law. Foreigners, stateless persons and foreign legal entities have the right to judicial protection in Ukraine on an equal footing with citizens and legal entities of Ukraine. Access to justice for every person is ensured in accordance with the Constitution of Ukraine and in the manner prescribed by the laws of Ukraine. However, along with the guaranteed right to apply to the court of foreigners, stateless persons (refugees, migrants, immigrants), such a category of subjects of administrative proceedings as apartheid remained outside the scope of domestic law. In order to eliminate the shortcomings of the legislative regulation of the legal status of apartheid in Ukraine, the author came to the conclusion that it is necessary to eliminate the existing shortcoming by amending the Law of Ukraine «On Legal Status of Foreigners and Stateless Persons» of 22.09.2011 № 3773-V.
