The Supreme Court of Justice denied the appeal against the collective tribunal's decision to alter its answers. The appellant argued that changing the answers violated procedural rules, but the court found no violation because all evidentiary elements supporting the original answers were present in the case file. Consequently, the court held that the collective tribunal was legally permitted to modify its responses given the completeness of the evidence.
