Abstract

The conjunction of substantive and adjective Law constitutes one of the fundamentals of the judicial function. An example thereof is the Supreme Court’s judgement of June 7, 2011, in hich the principles of congruence and of non reformatio in peius play such an important role, that an eminent domain process containing an ultra vires action is finally rendered into an urgent eminent domain process. The particular features of this case offer the opportunity to review the fitting of the aforementioned procedural principles in the jurisdiction for judicial review and, especially, their application by the Supreme Court to this case.
