POLITICAL PARTIES' ACCESS TO ADMINISTRATIVE JUSTICE.

A decision on interpretation issued in 2020 by the High Court of Cassation and Justice established that legal persons under private law cannot directly invoke in administrative court the infringement of a public interest, as they would replace the prosecutor, whose mission is to protect the general interests of the society and to defend the rights and freedoms of the citizens. The political parties are persons under public law.
