The Supreme Court of Justice denied the request to review a new issue regarding the omission of a pronouncement that was not raised in the appeal. The appellant argued that the lower court failed to address a procedural defect, while the opposing party contended that such matters must be raised at the first instance. The court ruled that the appellate tribunal cannot examine new questions and the Supreme Court's role is limited to verifying the correct use of powers granted by Article 712 of the Civil Procedure Code.
