Administrative Law

Administrative law refers to the body of legal rules governing the organisation and activities of the public administration, as well as administrative procedures. This also includes the associated rights and obligations of private individuals. A distinction is made between general and special administrative law. General administrative law comprises the regulations that apply to all areas of public administration but are only partially codified. Special administrative law, by contrast, is comprehensively codified and concerns, for example, police law, environmental protection law and the law of public levies. Public procedural law and the case law of the Administrative Court are also included in the online commentary on the Constitution of the Principality of Liechtenstein.
