The judicial route for environmental disputes in Georgian law
Georgia has no separate specialized environmental court — environmental disputes are heard by the ordinary courts, under the general rules of administrative and civil law. However, the substantive foundation of these disputes — what you rely on in court — is formulated in the Law of Georgia on Environmental Protection: the rights of citizens, the fundamental principles of environmental protection, and the regime of state control. This page explains which legal anchors you have in court and what to know about limitation periods for environmental damage claims.
In practical terms: if you oppose the placement, design, construction, reconstruction or operation of an ecologically dangerous object, or have suffered environmental damage, your position must be built on this law, while the procedural side is determined by the general procedural legislation.
