1) If the court approves the appeal, it shall declare void the decision or action in the procedures of proposing the candidate or election of the councillor, or it shall annul the election of the councillor.

(2) Where the Court decides that the contested decision should be annulled, if appropriate and if the ascertained facts provide reasonable grounds for it, the Court may take a meritorious decision solving the election dispute. The decision of the court shall fully replace the annulled enactment.

(3) If upon objection or appeal, an action in the election procedure or the election of the councillor has been annulled, the Electoral Commission shall repeat the election action or the elections within the time-limit envisaged for repeated elections by this Law. The time-limit shall start as of the date of enacting the decision on the annulment.
