The Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the appeal because the updated pension value of 500,001 escudos fell below the required 2,000,000 escudos jurisdictional threshold. The appellant argued for Supreme Court review, but the court applied the specific calculation rules for pension update incidents. Consequently, the case was returned to the lower court as the Supreme Court lacked jurisdictional competence.
