administrative courts (tribunaux administratifs)
Administrative courts, or tribunaux administratifs, are specialized courts that handle legal disputes between individuals or organizations and government authorities. They review cases involving public decisions, such as administrative acts, licenses, or regulations, to ensure they comply with laws and regulations. These courts provide an impartial forum for disputing administrative actions, offering a transparent process to challenge governmental decisions. Their role is essential in maintaining accountability and protecting individual rights against administrative overreach, while ensuring that public authorities exercise their powers within the bounds of the law.
