The granting of financial assistance from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development is performed by means of either an administrative decision or a civil law contract. From the legal perspective, the refusal to grant assistance under a contract is not a typical administrative decision. It has the form of an administrative act in the meaning of Article 3 section 2 point 4 of the Law on Proceedings before Administrative Courts. The above mentioned provision guarantees the person interested in financial assistance the judicial-administrative protection equivalent to that in a case of administrative decision. Furthermore, in some cases this protection is even wider; e.g. when the administrative Court recognises the entitlement to financial assistance in a judgment passed pursuant to Article 146 section 2 of the above mentioned Law. This kind of entitlement is accompanied by the obligation of a State Agency to grant the assistance to the farmer. In a case when fulfilling of the obligation has the form of a contract, the beneficiary can claim its conclusion, e.g. pursuant to Article 64 of the Civil Code.
