The court dismissed the appeal regarding the deadline for administrative resolution and the nature of tacit acts. The appellant argued that the procedural timeline should be interpreted differently, but the court held that the statutory period covers both the investigation phase and the final decision. Furthermore, the court ruled that an express confirmation issued after a tacit act is irrevocable, thereby upholding the administrative act's validity.
