The Transitional Justice Commission issued an administrative order in 2020 requiring the Kuomintang (KMT) to transfer 80 political files, including 'Presidential Endorsements,' to the National Archives Administration. The KMT challenged the order in court. The Taipei High Administrative Court ruled against the KMT, a decision upheld in the retrial. The court stated that these documents are essential for understanding the history of the martial law era and the mobilization period.
