Legislator summary

AI generated

The court granted the appeal, ruling that the principle barring new issues in appeals does not apply to incidental proceedings initiated sua sponte. The appellant argued that raising expiration of the limitation period constituted a new question, but the court held that such decisions are inherently incidental. Consequently, the court decided that the expiration issue was not new because it arose from the court's own initiative rather than the parties' submissions.
