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

The Court of Cassation dismissed the appeal lodged by the applicant against the inadmissibility ruling of the first-instance court. The applicant argued that the lower court lacked jurisdiction to hear the asylum request, while the opposing party maintained that the matter fell within the exclusive competence of the administrative bodies. The court decided that the asylum procedure is an administrative matter and thus the judicial court correctly rejected the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
