Specialised courts
There are some specialised courts that deal with disputes in different areas of specialisation.
- The
labour court deals with labour disputes. As a labour dispute, any dispute relating to the relationship between employer and employee is taken into account. The labour court is normally the first and only competent court in labour disputes. However, certain types of labour disputes are first examined by the district court, the judgment of which may be appealed to the Labour Court, and then becomes a second and last court. - The Market Court deals, inter alia, with disputes under the Competition Act and the Marketing Act.
- The Court of Patent appeal hears appeals against decisions of the Patent and Registration Office concerning patents, trade marks, designs, etc. The decision of the Patent Appeal Court is appealed to the Supreme Administrative Court.
Land and Environment courts process cases such as permits for water operations and environmentally hazardous operations, issues of health protection, nature conservation, refuse collection, polluted areas and hazardous waste, environmentally-related damages and compensation issues, issues of building, demolition and land permits under the Planning and Building Act, site leaseholds, appeals in planning matters, land parcelling, utility easements and expropriation.
