The court dismissed the appeal filed by Jose Matos against the Santa Cruz Municipal Council, determining the dispute concerned the execution of an administrative contract rather than a municipal deliberation. Matos argued for liability for non-performance, while the Council contended the matter was procedural. The court ruled that since no council resolution was challenged, the proper remedy is a direct action on the contract, not a jurisdictional appeal.
