State-owned industrial plots. Not public property. Rather, over private property of the State. Dealings therein are subject to the provisions of private law. Contracts concluded concerning them are not administrative contracts. The decision issued by the Municipality to withdraw them from the allottee. Not an administrative decision. Any dispute arising concerning allotment or withdrawal. Does not fall within the jurisdiction of the Administrative Circuit, but falls within the jurisdiction of the Commercial Circuit.
Arabic original
القسائم الصناعية المملوكة للدولة. ليست مال عام. بل على مال خاص للدولة. التعامل فيها يخضع لأحكام القانون الخاص. العقود التي تبرم بشأنها لا تعتبر عقود إدارية. القرار الصادر من البلدية بسحبها من المخصص له. لا يُعد قراراً إدارياً أي نزاع يثور بشأن التخصيص أو السحب. لا يدخل في اختصاص الدائرة الإدارية بل تختص به الدائرة التجارية.
