The Tribunal dos Conflitos declared the Tribunal Administrativo de Círculo of Aveiro competent to hear the case, despite the act being performed outside its territorial seat. The Ministério Público challenged the Tribunal de Comarca of Coimbra's jurisdiction, arguing that the Administrative Tribunal lacked authority to act beyond its defined limits. The court ruled that when an Administrative Tribunal acts outside its seat, it must issue a precatory letter to the competent comarca, thereby validating the transfer of jurisdiction and establishing the original tribunal's competence through this procedural mechanism.
