“Time Limit for Filing a Full Jurisdiction Action After the Dismissal of an Annulment Case”

“Time Limit for Filing a Full Jurisdiction Action After the Dismissal of an Annulment Case”

A full jurisdiction action (also known as a compensation lawsuit) is a type of administrative lawsuit filed by a person who has suffered material or moral damages as a result of an act, action, or omission of the administration, with the aim of obtaining compensation for those damages. This type of lawsuit derives its legal basis from Article 125 of the Constitution.   A full jurisdiction action can be filed in four different ways:   Filing a direct full jurisdiction action within the period prescribed for bringing an annulment action against the administrative act that violates one’s rights;   Filing both an annulment action and a full jurisdiction action together within the time limit for challenging the administrative act that violates one’s rights;   Filing a full jurisdiction action within the prescribed time limit following the notification of the judgment rendered in an annulment action brought against the administrative act that violated one’s rights;   Filing a full jurisdiction action within the prescribed time limit due to damages arising from the execution of an administrative act that violated one’s rights.  ..

THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT ANNULS THE PROVISION ON THE CONSOLIDATION OF CASES UNDER ARTICLE 166 OF THE CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE (HMK)

THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT ANNULS THE PROVISION ON THE CONSOLIDATION OF CASES UNDER ARTICLE 166 OF THE CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE (HMK)

The Nevşehir 4th Civil Court of First Instance and the Istanbul Anadolu 15th Civil Court of Peace requested the annulment of Article 166/1 of the Code of Civil Procedure (HMK), arguing that under the contested provision, when a consolidation decision is made in cases filed before courts of the same level and jurisdiction, such a decision binds the other court, and an appeal against this decision can only be made together with the final judgment. Therefore, it was asserted that the first court where the case was filed has no opportunity to review the consolidation decision. This situation was claimed to be incompatible with the principles of the rule of law, the right to legal remedies, the guarantee of a lawful judge, and the independence of the judiciary. Accordingly, the rule was alleged to violate Articles 2, 13, 36, 37, and 138 of the Constitution, and its annulment was requested. Upon evaluation, the Constitutional Court ruled that the phrase “...and this decision shall be binding on the other court...” contained in Article 166(1), second sentence, of the Code of Civil Procedure No. 6100 dated 12 January 2011, is unconstitutional and decided to annul it...

LEGAL REMEDIES AGAINST CANCER DRUGS NOT COVERED BY THE SOCIAL SECURITY INSTITUTION (SGK) AND THE HEALTH IMPLEMENTATION COMMUNIQUÉ

The fact that a drug is not included in the SUT list does not necessarily mean that the Institution will not cover its cost under any circumstances. However, in such cases, a legal process must be initiated to request reimbursement. Even if the drug in use is not listed, the patient may apply to the Social Security Institution (SGK), and if the application is rejected, a lawsuit against SGK may be filed with a request for an interim injunction. If the interim injunction is granted, the cost of the drug can be covered by SGK throughout the treatment period...

PILOT JUDGMENT BY THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT ON ADDITIONAL (EXCESS) DAMAGES

PILOT JUDGMENT BY THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT ON ADDITIONAL (EXCESS) DAMAGES

In its decision dated 8 July 2025 and numbered 2024/41763, the Constitutional Court evaluated claims concerning the loss of value of receivables arising from disputes between private legal entities due to inflation, taking into account previous Court of Cassation (Yargıtay) rulings, within the scope of the right to property and the right to an effective remedy.   As a result of this assessment, the Court held that there is no effective legal remedy available regarding claims for additional (excess) damages, that Article 122 of the Turkish Code of Obligations (Law No. 6098) does not provide adequate protection against the loss of value of receivables caused by inflation, and that the existing case law has failed to offer an effective solution to this legal issue. Consequently, the Court ruled that the right to property (Article 35 of the Constitution) and the right to an effective remedy (Article 40) had been violated. This decision was published in the Official Gazette No. 33032 on 29 September 2025...

Criminal Law

Criminal Law

Criminal Law Criminal law is a branch of public law that regulates criminal acts and the legal penalties for these acts. Its main goal is to protect social order and the fundamental rights of individuals. Crimes such as intentional killing, fraud, embezzlement, threats, drug trafficking, sexual offenses, forgery, and abuse of power fall under this field. These accusations do not only create legal consequences. They also affect a person’s freedom, reputation, and social life. Because of this, criminal cases must be handled with legal expertise and strategic thinking.A criminal case goes through many stages. These include police questioning, the prosecutor’s investigation, court hearings, and if needed, appeals. During these stages, the presumption of innocence is essential. A person cannot be seen as guilty until there is a final decision by a court. Another important rule is the right to be protected from unjust harm to one’s reputation. This right ensures that people do not suffer unfair damage to their name or image during an investigation. Even if there is an allegation, no one should be treated like a criminal unless there is clear and lawful evidence.At Uzunpınar TÜFEK Intern..
