Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against the lower court's decision to remand the case for a new trial. The lower court had previously rejected a request for permission to appeal but later ordered a retrial after a complaint was filed, yet failed to address the litigation costs claimed by the parties. Consequently, the Supreme Court determined that the lower court's procedure was incorrect because it did not rule on the cost claims within the remanded proceedings.

Korkein oikeus hylkäsi 24.3.1993 vireille tulleessa riita-asiassa tehdyn valituslupahakemuksen 30.6.1995, mutta sen jälkeen tehdyn kantelun johdosta poisti asiaa koskevan hovioikeuden tuomion ja palautti asian hovioikeuden käsiteltäväksi osoittaen hovioikeuden lausumaan myös esitetyistä oikeudenkäyntikuluvaatimuksista. Hovioikeus käsitteli asian uudelleen, mutta ei lausunut Korkeimmassa oikeudessa valituslupa- ja kanteluasian yhteydessä esitetyistä oikeudenkäyntikuluvaatimuksista.

Kysymys hovioikeuden menettelyn oikeellisuudesta ja oikeudenkäyntikuluvastuuseen sovellettavasta laista.
