The Supreme Court of Justice unanimously rejected the appeal, affirming that common courts lack jurisdiction to recognize labor credits excluded from public debt liquidation maps. The plaintiff argued for recognition of unpaid labor credits, while the opposing party contended that such credits fall under the exclusive competence of specialized public debt commissions. The court ruled that the specific statutory provisions explicitly assign this matter to the liquidation commissions, thereby excluding common judicial tribunals from hearing such claims.
