The Supreme Court of Justice declined to examine the appeal lodged against the rapporteur's decision not to admit the case. The appellant sought review of a summary conviction where the rapporteur refused jurisdiction, while the opposing party argued that such refusal was arbitrary. The court ruled that under the 1929 Criminal Procedure Code, appeals against summary judgments were restricted, and the rapporteur's non-acceptance was a valid procedural act that precluded further review at this level.
