Constitutional court denies jurisdiction conflict resolution when a contested decision has not yet become final. The court ruled that jurisdictional disputes cannot be resolved if one of the conflicting decisions is still subject to appeal. This prevents premature interference in ongoing administrative proceedings where finality is required for sanction enforcement.

The Tribunal dos Conflitos unanimously denied the request to resolve a jurisdictional conflict between the Seixal Judicial Tribunal and the Director of the Food Quality Institute. Both parties claimed incompetence to impose sanctions in a contravention proceeding, but the court found that the dispute could not be settled because one of the conflicting decisions had not yet become final. The court held that jurisdictional conflicts require finality to avoid interfering with pending administrative processes, thus rejecting the resolution request.

SUMÁRIO

É de indeferir o requerimento para resolução do conflito de jurisdição suscitado entre o juíz 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.
