Common courts have jurisdiction over civil liability claims against the state for illegal preventive detention acts.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Tribunal dos Conflitos ruled that common courts possess jurisdiction over civil liability actions against the state arising from judicial acts of preventive detention. The Public Prosecutor challenged the competence of the Customs Court of Fé, arguing it lacked authority to hear such cases. The court decided that acts of preventive detention are judicial in nature, and any resulting civil liability must be adjudicated by ordinary tribunals, not specialized customs courts.
