Constitutional court denies jurisdiction conflict resolution when a contested order has not yet become final. The court ruled that jurisdictional disputes cannot be resolved if the underlying administrative penalty decision is still subject to appeal. This prevents parallel proceedings and ensures the administrative process concludes before judicial review of jurisdiction begins.

SUMÁRIO

É de indeferir o requerimento para resolução de conflito de jurisdição suscitado entre o juiz do Tribunal Judicial do Seixal e o director do Instituto de Qualidade Alimentar, cada um dos quais se considerando incompetente para a aplicação de sanções em processo de contra-ordenação, se uma das decisões em confronto não transitou em julgado.
