Abstract

         This academic article aims to study administrative legal execution, the case study of administrative court order to administrative agency or state official to demolish the illegal buildings or structures. The results of the study reveal the  obstacles, especially in case the demolition of high-rise buildings or large structures beyond administrative agency or state official capacity to achieve the judgment or in case the demolition of buildings or structure where there are many people living and the masses pressure or other demands such as relocation costs, find a new address.  Coordination or support from other administrative agencies that are not parties to the case may be required. Whereas, the Act on Establishment of Administrative Courts and Administrative Court Procedure, B.E. 2542 (1999), Section 75/3 provides that the Administrative Courts shall have the authority to consider or inquire into the issue and order compliance with the judgment or order, or order the execution of a judgment to be carried out expediently and completely. Also  Section 75/4 provides that the Administrative Courts have the authority to impose a fine. However,  other than an administrative fine, for an administrative legal execution to be successful and can resolve the suffering of the plaintiffs, other legal measures must be implemented to ensure the full effectiveness of the Act on Establishment of Administrative Courts and Administrative Court Procedure, B.E. 2542 (1999).
