Article LO6252-14 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

The president of the territorial council may, after deliberation by the executive council, refer to the administrative tribunal a request for an opinion on the interpretation of the status of Saint-Barthélemy or on the applicability in the collectivity of a legislative or regulatory text.

In the event of serious difficulty, the president of the administrative tribunal may forward this request to the Conseil d’Etat.

When the request for an opinion concerns the division of powers between the State and the collectivity, it is examined by the Conseil d’Etat to which it is forwarded without delay. The State representative is informed immediately.
