\nLitigation Committee<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n
\n

The Litigation Committee at the University of Luxembourg is an independent administrative body tasked with resolving certain categories of disputes between \u201cusers\u201d of the University of Luxembourg (i.e. current, former and\/or potential students of the University) and the University\u2019s decision-making bodies, by law, via a (quasi-judicial) adversarial procedure. The Litigation Committee was partly inspired by the mediaeval notion of universities according to which the professors and students formed a community and any disputes had to be settled \u201cinternally\u201d. The Luxembourg Act of 27 June 2018 concerning the organisation of the University of Luxembourg (hereafter the \u201cAct\u201d) did not opt for the most radical form of this model: the Litigation Committee does not have a monopoly over dispute resolution and does not have the status of a court. The Luxembourg courts retain jurisdiction for the vast majority of these disputes (but not all). However, any (current, former and\/or potential) student who wishes to bring a complaint before the Administrative Tribunal must first submit his\/her grievances to the The Litigation Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n
