English translation of the principle

Jurisdiction of the Administrative Circuit. It concerns public order. It does not arise in respect of contracts unless they are administrative contracts. The fact that one party is a legal person is insufficient to regard a contract as such.
Arabic original
اختصاص الدائرة الإدارية. يتعلق بالنظام العام. لا ينعقد بالنسبة للعقود ما لم تكن إدارية. لا يكفي لاعتبار العقد كذلك أن يكون أحد طرفيه شخصاً معنوياً.
