This book addresses an aspect of the judiciary, which is the administrative judiciary. It clarifies the concept of the principle of legality and the subjection of public administration to the law. It also explains the meaning of the public administration's subjection to the law, outlining its legal sources, both written—such as the constitution, ordinary laws, judicial review of constitutionality, temporary laws, and treaties—and unwritten, like custom and general legal principles. The book then discusses the balance of the principle of legality, represented by the theories of discretionary power, exceptional circumstances, and acts of sovereignty or government acts, explaining the concept and meaning of each. It also covers the establishment of the High Court of Justice, its jurisdiction and developments, and the matters it is competent to hear. Furthermore, it refers to the jurisdiction limits of the High Court of Justice under Law No. (12) of 1992. It then summarizes the matters subject to the court's authority, including electoral appeals, employee appeals, and appeals by individuals and bodies to annul administrative decisions. The book also examines disputes related to the professional life of civil servants, meaning conflicts that arise between the public administration and its employees regarding decisions issued by the administration. Finally, it provides examples of sound legislation for administrative decisions and clarifies the position of the Jordanian judiciary on these laws.
