Selected
breach of public policy
In this context, I believe "orden público" does not refer to disturbances of "public order" (or as is more commonly expressed in English, "breach of the peace"), but rather refers to "public policy" as defined below:
Public Policy-Broadly, principles and standards regarded by the legislature or by the courts as being of fundamental concern to the state and the whole of society. Courts sometimes use the term to justify their decisions, as when declaring a contract void because it is "contrary to public policy". Also termed "policy of the law".
(Blacks Law Dictionary, 7th ed.)
In this case one of the parties has raised a "cuestión de competencia" disputing the court's jurisdiction and is protesting that the court is in breach of public policy by denying that party's motion for the court to decline jurisdiction.
On the following websites there are many examples of how "breach of public policy" is used to describe jurisdictional disputes like the one described in your text to be translated:
