Article 50
 

An appeal against the decision of the electoral commission, as well as the decision sustaining the objection, may be filed to the competent municipal court within 24 hours of the delivery of the decision.

The appeal shall be deliberated upon at the council's session.

The electoral commission shall immediately, at latest within 12 hours, deliver all information and data necessary for deliberation.

During the procedure for protection of the electoral franchise, the court shall implement provisions of the Law that governs the procedure in administrative disputes.

A decision on appeal shall be reached at latest within 48 hours following the receipt of the appeal and files.

A decision issued on the basis of the appeal procedure is legally valid and there may be neither requests for extraordinary challenging of the court decision nor request for retrial as pursuant to the Law on Administrative Disputes.

If the court adopts the appeal against the decision on overruling the objection, an appropriate electoral procedure, or elections, shall be repeated within 10 days at latest.

If the court adopts the appeal against the decision on sustaining the objection, it shall be considered that the electoral commission has not revoked the decision or action.
