Article L5211-58 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

Any taxpayer registered on the roll of the municipality has the right to exercise, both as plaintiff and defendant, at his own expense and risk, with the authorisation of the administrative court, the actions that he believes belong to the public establishments of inter-municipal cooperation to which the municipality has joined and which the latter, previously called upon to deliberate, have refused or neglected to exercise.

The taxpayer sends the administrative court a detailed brief.

The president of the public establishment for inter-municipal cooperation submits this brief to the deliberative body of the establishment at the closest meeting held pursuant to article L. 5211-11.

When a judgement has been handed down, the taxpayer may only appeal or appeal to the Supreme Court by virtue of a new authorisation.

Article L5211-58

Tout contribuable inscrit au rôle de la commune a le droit d’exercer, tant en demande qu’en défense, à ses frais et risques, avec l’autorisation du tribunal administratif, les actions qu’il croit appartenir aux établissements publics de coopération intercommunale auxquels a adhéré la commune et que ceux-ci, préalablement appelés à en délibérer, ont refusé ou négligé d’exercer.

Le contribuable adresse au tribunal administratif un mémoire détaillé.

Le président de l’établissement public de coopération intercommunale soumet ce mémoire à l’organe délibérant de l’établissement lors de la plus proche réunion tenue en application de l’article L. 5211-11.

Lorsqu’un jugement est intervenu, le contribuable ne peut se pourvoir en appel ou en cassation qu’en vertu d’une nouvelle autorisation.
