Elections in Žehra are null and void

From the facts established in the present case, it can be concluded that the exercise of the right to vote, as well as the procedure of the Election Commission in securing the voting at the polling station in the municipality of Žehra, was in fundamental violation of the constitutional and legal requirements.

The Panel of the Supreme Administrative Court of the Slovak Republic assessed as essential the plaintiff’s objections in which he claimed that a number of voters had not personally participated in the elections, but that the right to vote had been exercised on their behalf by other persons who had voted repeatedly.

No appeal shall lie against the decision of the Panel. The written reasons for the decision shall be published within the statutory period of 30 days from the date of its pronouncement.

In the election action Marián Mižigár c/a Jozef Mižigár, the decision of Panel No. 12 of the Supreme Administrative Court of the Slovak Republic was taken by the Panel composed of: the President of the Panel, JUDr. Monika Valašiková, PhD (Judge-rapporteur); the Judges, JUDr. Elena Berthotyová, PhD; JUDr. Anita Filová; prof. JUDr. Juraj Vačok, PhD.; JUDr. Juraj Vališ, LL.M.
