Compensation for refusal of a building permit

Home » The art of the process » Art of Litigation » Compensation for refusal of a building permit

The adoption by an administrative authority of an erroneous decision refusing (once or even several times) a building permit (“GNP”) may result in material damage to the INVESTOR, which includes, inter alia: (a) damage to the extended financing of the intended investment (b) damage due to lost transactions to dispose of premises in the intended investment (d) damage due to delayed completion and settlement of the investment. According to the Supreme Court, the administrative authorities are also liable for damages resulting from the adoption of invalid judgments and inconstrictive administrative decisions.

This issue was clarified in the resolution of the seven Judges of the Supreme Court of 26 April 2006, III CZP 125/05. The legal basis for claims for damages and liability of the State Treasury is Art. 417 k.c. Liability of the State Treasury pursuant to Article 417 § 1 k.c. does not require any prejudicate (cf. judgment of SA in Bialystok of 15 November 2017, I ACa 467/17). A model of an example of a request for compensation for refusal of GNP attached.
