A final decision contained an error

A final act can be challenged by an extraordinary review appeal in specific cases: four years if the error appears in the file itself and three months in the others.

When it applies

For example, if there was a factual error that can be seen in the documents of the file itself.

«a) Que al dictarlos se hubiera incurrido en error de hecho, que resulte de los propios documentos incorporados al expediente.»

Deadlines

Four years in that case; three months in the others.

«dentro del plazo de cuatro años siguientes a la fecha de la notificación de la resolución impugnada.»
