Italian Supreme Court dismisses appeal regarding inadmissibility of asylum claim due to lack of jurisdiction.

The Court of Cassation dismissed the interlocutory order challenging the jurisdiction of the local court over an asylum application. The applicant argued that the regional authority lacked competence to hear the case, while the opposing party maintained that the local court had proper jurisdiction under Italian law. The court ruled that the specific statutory provisions governing asylum proceedings clearly assign jurisdiction to the local courts, thereby rejecting the appeal on procedural grounds.
