LOCUS STANDI MODEL IN ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE OF LATVIA. (English)

There are two conceptually different models of locus standi (i.e. the right or capacity to bring an action or to appear in a court) in the national administrative law of those states which belong to the Western legal system - (i) right-based locus standi and (ii) interestbased locus standi. Administrative Procedure Law of Latvia provides general regulation that a person may submit an application to the administrative court, if his or her rights or legal interests have been infringed or may be infringed. This article analyses the main differences between right-based and interest-based locus standi models, as well as indicates, which model of locus standi is implemented in the administrative procedure of Latvia.
