The Graz Law Working Paper Series was launched in fall 2020 with the aim of reflecting the breadth and quality of legal research at the Faculty of Law of the University of Graz (REWI Uni Graz) and to provide a broad academic audience with early, free access to this research. The series includes legal research by faculty members of the REWI Uni Graz, doctoral students and visiting scholars. All fields of law are invited to contribute to the series, including public law, private law, comparative law and interdisciplinary approaches.
As the title of this article suggests, tracing an administrative settlement in EU-law is like chasing a mythical creature. If it does exist, it is probably not in the same form as in state law, which requires some imagination in order to read the methods available in EU-law, which settle administrative law proceedings in a non-judicial and amicable manner, as alternative and merely related forms of the state administrative court settlement.
