Summary/Abstract: The main aim of this work is to analyze the consequences voivodeship administrative court’s ruling which revokes the opposition to registration on the legal counsel’s list issued by the Ministry of Justice. The main issue here is the fact, that due to Article 152 § 1 of the Act on Administrative Courts Proceedings, the effect of a ruling which revokes the administrative act is that the legal effects of such an act are suspended until the court’s ruling will not be final and enforceable. In such a case, an important question arises – should the competent authorities of the National Bar of Attorneys-at-Law assume that the registration on the attorneys at law’s list is legal and as a result set the date for the candidate to take the oath? The analysis of the law and the nature of the Ministry’s objection leads to conclusions that the aforementioned effect of Article 152 § 1 does not occur in such a case. This is due to the dual nature of the objection. On the one hand, it is an administrative act (conventional activity), but on the other hand, it is part of the hypothesis of the legal norm preventing the release of the disposition. As a result, it can be assumed that the objection in this regard is a factual act.
