AI generated

The Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the appeal, ruling that the labor court lacked jurisdiction over the debt recognition case. The court determined that the term 'common court' in the relevant decree corresponds to a 'generic competence court,' which is the civil tribunal. Consequently, the labor tribunal was found incompetent to hear the matter based on the statutory definitions of court jurisdiction.
