Glosa krytyczna do wyroku Wojewódzkiego Sądu Administracyjnego w Warszawie z dnia 11 kwietnia 2023 r. (VII SA/Wa 2467/22)

Abstract

The commentary concerns the judgment of the Voivodeship Administrative Court in Warsaw of 11 April 2023, in which the Court referred to the interpretation of the concept of a railway area. The Court’s position deviates from the standards of linguistic interpretation and the accepted practice of administrative authorities. Due to its significant relevance to the process of agreements made by the President of the Office of Rail Transport, the discussed judgment is important for the practice of administrative bodies involved in spatial planning and development. The commentary is critical in nature and considers that the Court, by applying inappropriate interpretive tools, deviated from a linguistic interpretation that was unjustified in the context of the previous case law and doctrinal views.
