Judicial review in the Republic of Ireland

Judicial review in the Republic of Ireland is a way for the Superior Courts to supervise the Oireachtas to make sure that legislation does not conflict with the Constitution.

This acts as a filter of entirely spurious or unfounded matters.

Having been granted leave, the applicant must then remake the entire application for judicial review whereupon the Court will set a date for hearing.

All judicial review in Ireland is conducted by the High Court unless the applicant wants a review of any decision, activity, ruling or rule of the High Court whereby the review is conducted by the Supreme Court (including appeals of decisions previously made in High Court judicial reviews)
