A prerogative order is a judicial remedy that allows individuals to challenge decisions made by public bodies. To use it against a public body's decision, one typically files for a judicial review in a higher court, arguing that the decision was unlawful, unreasonable, or procedurally improper. The court then assesses whether the public body acted within its legal authority and followed the proper procedures. If the court finds in favor of the applicant, it can quash the decision and potentially order the public body to reconsider the matter.
