[Direct answer]In the Beijing area, the decision may be revoked or simply confirmed as illegal. According to Article 70 of the Administrative Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China (amended in 2017), if an administrative act lacks sufficient evidence, applies the wrong law, violates legal procedures, exceeds or abuses its powers, or is obviously improper, the court may rule to revoke or partially revoke it. Article 74 stipulates that if an administrative act is illegal but its revocation would cause significant damage to national interests or public interests, or if it does not have revocable content, the court may rule to confirm its illegality. If the demolition and relocation decision violates public interests and planning, fails to fulfill the announcement and hearing procedures, or the compensation plan is illegal, it can be petitioned for revocation. If the demolition and relocation has been carried out on a large scale, the court will mostly confirm its illegality and order remedial measures.

III. Professional analysis by Henglue Lawyers

The first layer concerns the key points of legality review. The demolition and relocation of shantytowns must comply with the national economic and social development plans, the overall land use plans, urban and rural planning, and special plans, and serve the public interest. It is also necessary to go through procedures such as demonstrating and publicizing the compensation plan, soliciting public opinions, holding hearings, and assessing the risks of social stability. The second layer outlines common illegal situations. Failure to announce the plan according to law or incomplete announcement content, failure to solicit the opinions of the demolition subjects, omission of statutory items in the compensation plan, commercial development under the guise of shantytown demolition, and unlawful selection of appraisal institutions may all constitute illegal actions. The third layer focuses on revoking and confirming illegality. The court may rule to revoke an illegal demolition decision, but if revoking it would cause significant damage to the public interest or if the demolition has already been completed and there is no content subject to revocation, the court will confirm the illegality and may order remedial measures and compensation for losses. The fourth layer details the key points of litigation. The plaintiff should be a subject of demolition within the scope of the project. The general litigation period is six months from the date of knowing the demolition decision. Evidence can include announcements, plans, planning documents, and records of soliciting opinions to prove procedural omissions or substantive violations. Henglue Law Firm reminds that litigation against demolition decisions is highly professional, and it is advisable to consult and secure evidence as soon as possible after the decision is announced to avoid missing the deadline.

VI. Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Can the decision to expropriate for shantytown renovation be revoked if it is illegal?

Possibly. If there are circumstances such as insufficient main evidence, misapplication of the law, or violation of legal procedures, the court may rule to revoke the decision; if the revocation would seriously harm the public interest or the decision does not contain revocable content, the court will rule to confirm the illegality and order remedial measures.

Q2: What circumstances constitute a violation of the program rules?

Not announcing the expropriation decision and compensation plan in accordance with the law, not soliciting public opinions or organizing hearings, not conducting social stability risk assessments, and lacking statutory items in the compensation plan, as well as implementing commercial development under the guise of shantytown renovation, may all constitute procedural violations.

Q3: What's the difference between revoking and confirming an illegal act?

Revocation makes the administrative act lose its effectiveness from the beginning, and the decision to collect taxes is rejected; confirmation of illegality means that the act is deemed illegal but the status quo is maintained, which is mostly used in situations where the public interest is significant or the act does not have revocable content, and the party concerned may be ordered to make compensation.

Q4: How long is the statute of limitations for filing a lawsuit?

Generally, it is within six months from the date of receiving the expropriation decision. After the announcement of the expropriation decision, it is necessary to evaluate and sue as soon as possible. If the time limit is exceeded, the lawsuit may be rejected. In the case of reconsideration, if the party is not satisfied with the reconsideration decision, they should sue within 15 days.

Q5: Who can appeal against the tax collection decision?

The persons subject to expropriation within the scope of expropriation have the qualification of a plaintiff, as their legitimate rights and interests are directly related to the expropriation decision. For those not within the scope of expropriation, it is generally difficult for them to file a lawsuit against the expropriation decision.
