The court dismissed the appeal regarding the legitimacy of a party to oppose a specific request. The appellant argued for standing based on a general interest, while the opposing party contended that only a direct interest in the outcome was sufficient. The court ruled that legitimacy requires a direct interest in contradicting the request because the request's approval would cause corresponding prejudice to the party.
