Kako bi stranka realizirala vlastita prava i zaštitila svoje interese u upravnom postupku, nužno je da ima određene karakteristike. Uvjeti za stranačko djelovanje su: stranačka sposobnost, postupovna sposobnost i stranačka legitimacija. Stranka ima mogućnost protiv rješenja izjaviti
žalbu drugostupanjskom tijelu. Ono će pak o žalbi odlučiti rješenjem u zakonom propisanom roku. Protiv drugostupanjskog rješenja stranka ima pravo pokrenuti upravni spor tužbom pred upravnim sudovima. |
| Abstract (english) | The Law on General Administrative Procedure (ZUP), one of the most important laws in the Republic of Croatia, has been in force since January 1, 2010. It is a general procedural law that applies in all administrative matters, and only certain spheres of administrative procedure can be regulated by special laws. Article 4 of the Law on General Administrative Procedure determines the main determinants of a party in an administrative procedure. A party in administrative proceedings is actually a natural or legal person. Proceedings may be initiated against the party, party may initiate proceedings, or party may participate in proceedings to protect the rights or interests. A party can also be a certain administrative body, if it can be the holder of the rights or obligations that are being resolved, for example: a state administration body, a body of a local or regional (regional) self-government unit, or some other public law body that does not have legal personality.
Generally speaking, the administrative procedure is determined by the legal principles of the general administrative procedure. In this way, it is determined and prescribed who actually participates in the process, under what conditions the process must be conducted, and what are the responsibilities and obligations of everyone who participates in the process. The phases and stages of the administrative process are prescribed, the role of individual phases is described, which actions are taken, by whom and under what circumstances. It is specified which categories of acts are adopted, what is the possibility of contesting them, settling the costs of the procedure and the party, enforcement and several other issues.
In order for a party to realize its own rights and protect its interests in the administrative procedure, it is necessary that it has certain characteristics. The conditions for party activity are: party capacity, procedural capacity and party identification. The party has the possibility to file an appeal against the decision to the second-instance body. It, in turn, will decide on the appeal with a
decision within the deadline prescribed by law. Against the second-instance decision, the party has the right to initiate an administrative dispute with a lawsuit before the administrative courts. |
