Administrative law deals with adjusting relationships between the individual and the government. A practitioner in this field must always contemplate whether the government at state or municipal level has used its executive powers according to the law. Thus, the course will focus on the main concepts and legal instruments of Administrative Law and Procedure in Latvia. The course will provide a broad insight into Latvian administrative law - from the basic principles of the structure of state administration to the execution of rulings in specific cases. Therefore, the course is sequentially structured and after its completion can serve as a manual for resolving disputes in various sub-branches of administrative law. The course includes classes that combine elements of lectures and seminars. Thus, students will be able to participate in practical lessons, such as debates, preparation of appeals, case studies and case-solving.
