The Supreme Court ordered the Court of Appeal to transfer the case to the main hearing regarding the reduction of the price of property shares. The lower court had failed to fulfill its procedural obligation to convene the main hearing necessary for resolving the dispute over the share price. The court ruled that without this procedural step, the lower court could not properly adjudicate the substantive issue of the price reduction.
