The Supreme Court of Justice unanimously denied the request for review of the civil liability judgment. The court established that monetary compensation must represent the financial gap between the victim's actual assets at the time of judgment and the assets they would have possessed had no damage occurred. Consequently, the claim for damages was rejected based on this strict comparative asset valuation standard.
