The Supreme Court of Justice denied the review petition, ruling that the lower court's collective decision lacked defects requiring modification. The applicant argued the second instance court erred in establishing the facts of the case, but the court held that such errors are not reviewable unless they fall under specific statutory exceptions. Consequently, the review was dismissed because the lower court's findings were deemed sufficient and no grounds for intervention existed.
