Abstract
Readers will remember that in 2006, the congolese constituent proclaimed the rule of law, one of the fundamental criteria of which remains the desire to eliminate any arbitrary act. Notwithstanding this proclamation, before 2016, it was difficult for individuals prejudiced by decisions Administrative even manifestly illegal to be quickly heard and rehabilitated in their freedoms and rights. With the entry into force of the organic law on the organization, functioning and competence of the courts of the Administrative order; the legislator is inspired by the desire to frame the role of the State in order to limit its power and fight against arbitrariness.Power must stop power, it is said. And this is why the congolese legislator wanted to give individuals themselves the effective procedural means to guarantee the protection of their rights and freedoms by organizing three main categories of summary proceeding: general summary proceedings, individual summary proceedings and special summary proceedings.

Abstract: (french)
Les lecteurs retiendront qu’en 2006, le constituant congolais proclamait l’Etat de Droit dont l’un des critères fondamentaux demeure la volonté d’éliminer tout acte arbitraire. Nonobstant cette proclamation, avant 2016, il était difficile aux individus préjudiciés par des décisions Administratives – même manifestement illégales – d’être rapidement entendus et réhabilités dans leurs libertés et droits. Avec l’entrée en vigueur de la loi organique portant organisation, fonctionnement et compétence des juridictions de l’ordre Administratif; le législateur s’inspire de la volonté d’encadrer le rôle de l’Etat afin de limiter sa puissance et de lutter contre l’arbitraire. Il faut que le pouvoir arrête le pouvoir, dit-on. Et ce pourquoi, le législateur congolais a voulu donner aux individus eux-mêmes les moyens procéduraux efficaces permettant de garantir la protection de leurs droits et libertés en organisant trois grandes catégories des référés: les référés généraux, les référés particuliers et les référés spéciaux.
Author Keywords: Droit, liberté, légalité, décision, Administration, arbitraire, individu, juge.
