The State Council is the head of the administrative justice in Colombia. For this, they have the same hierarchical level as the Constitutional Court (Article 116 of the National Constitution). The Constitutional Court and the State Council in Colombia are autonomous and independent public institutions of the judicial power. However, The Constitutional Court has known about the protection action against judicial sentences dictated by the State Council. Consequently, this has brought up a judicial competence conflict between the two public institutions. Nowadays, The State Council, in their last sentences, has said that it is viable to interpose the protection action against their sentences when these are trespassing fundamental rights.
