Article 252. Time Limit for Filing a Complaint (Protest) in the Supervisory Procedure

A complaint (protest) in the supervisory procedure against a decision, ruling, or resolution of the court of first instance may be filed within one year from the date it enters into legal force.

If the time limit for filing a complaint (protest) with the Administrative Court of the Republic of Karakalpakstan, regional or Tashkent city administrative courts, or the Military Court of the Republic of Uzbekistan has expired before a decision is made by the cassation instance, the complaint (protest) in the supervisory procedure may be filed within three months from the date the cassation instance court issues its decision.

If the time limit for filing a complaint (protest) with the Administrative Judicial Panel of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Uzbekistan has expired before a decision is made in the supervisory procedure by the Administrative Court of the Republic of Karakalpakstan, the regional or Tashkent city administrative courts, or the Military Court of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the complaint (protest) may be filed within three months from the date such a decision is made.

A protest by the Chairperson of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Uzbekistan or the Prosecutor General to the Presidium of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Uzbekistan must be submitted within three months from the date a request is received from the persons listed in the second and third paragraphs of part one of Article 249 of this Code, but no later than six months from the date the Administrative Judicial Panel of the Supreme Court issues its decision as a result of reviewing the case in the supervisory procedure.

The missed deadline for filing a complaint (protest) in the supervisory procedure may be restored by the court upon the request of the person filing the complaint (protest), provided the request is submitted within three months from the date the time limit expired, and the court considers the reasons for the delay to be valid.

A complaint (protest) in the supervisory procedure filed after the time limit specified in part five of this Article shall not be considered.
