The Supreme Court of Justice granted the appeal, confirming the solicitor's competence to request an incident of habilitation appended to an ordinary civil action. The court held that the procedural rules do not restrict this specific type of request when filed by a qualified legal representative. Consequently, the lower court's denial was overturned to permit the procedural step.
