Administrative courts in the Silesian Voivodship 1922—1939

Summary/Abstract: The article consists of three parts:. The first one — a short introduction — presents the process of creation of the Silesian Voivodeship in the Second Republic, both its post-Austrian and post-Prussian part. The second part of the article presents the takeover of the justice system in the former Prussian district. Although it did not concern Upper Silesia directly, the solutions applied in Greater Poland and Pomerania were transferred in their essence to Upper Silesia; the article presents also the system of administrative courts in force in this area before regaining independence. The third part — the main one — discusses the structure of the administrative courts in the Silesian Voivodship. Apart from general administrative courts, the article focuses also on the problem of administrative litigation in mining cases. The article ends with some remarks regarding official language in proceedings before the Silesian administrative courts.
