Prispevek obravnava vezanost organa prve stopnje na odločbo organa druge stopnje, izdano v pritožbenem postopku. Značilnost pravne ureditve v upravnem postopku je, da organ druge stopnje, če odpravi odločbo organa prve stopnje, praviloma odloči o upravni zadevi meritorno. Izjemoma, pod določenimi pogoji in zaradi določenih kršitev postopkovne narave vrne zadevo v ponovno odločanje na prvo stopnjo. Takrat nastopi vezanost organa prve stopnje na njegovo odločbo. Vendar tudi v tem primeru vezanost ni absolutna, kaj je v prispevku posebej obravnavano, zlasti če se pri ponovnem odločanju na prvi stopnji ugotovi drugačno dejansko stanje. Prispevek opozarja tudi na razlikovanje glede vezanosti pri dopolnjevanju postopka na prvi stopnji, ko nato organ druge stopnje sam odloči, od vezanosti na odločbo druge stopnje, ko se zadeva vrača v ponovno odločanje na prvo stopnjo.

The paper discusses the binding of the body of first instance to the decision of the body of second instance issued in the appeal procedure. It is characteristic of legal arrangements in the administrative procedure that the body of second instance typically decides on the merits of the administrative matter, on condition that the decision of the body of first instance is annulled. By way of exception, under certain conditions and under certain violations of the procedure, the matter is remitted for re-examination to the first instance. The binding of the body of first instance to the decision of the body of second instance then comes into effect. In the paper, special attention is paid to the fact that the binding here is also not absolute, especially if a different state of facts is ascertained in the re-examination in the first instance. The paper also points out the distinction between the binding where the procedure is complemented in the first instance and the body of second instance then makes the decision itself, from the binding to the second instance decision where the matter is remitted for re-examination to the first instance.
