The Supreme Court of Justice declined to hear the appeal, ruling that it lacks jurisdiction over new issues. The parties argued for a review of the lower court's decision, but the court found the appeal did not address previously decided questions. Consequently, the appeal was rejected because the court's mandate is limited to re-evaluating existing rulings, not examining new legal grounds.
