Courts supervise administrative agencies, ensuring they act within legal bounds. Mechanisms include writs (habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, certiorari, quo warranto) and judicial review of executive orders. Citizens can challenge arbitrary or ultra vires administrative actions. Administrative tribunals function under judicial scrutiny, and higher courts can overturn their rulings if they violate fundamental rights or procedural fairness. This control fosters the rule of law, protects public interest, and prevents administrative tyranny. However, judicial delays and backlog may impede timely resolution, highlighting the need for robust legal aid and alternative dispute resolution to maintain effective checks on bureaucracy.
