The Supreme Administrative Court declared itself incompetent to hear a customs smuggling case involving facts predating the 1978 legislative change. The Public Prosecutor argued the case belonged to the Supreme Administrative Court, while the Second Section of the Supreme Administrative Court claimed jurisdiction. The court ruled that because the alleged offenses occurred before the new law, the case must be transferred to the appellate court of the relationship.
