The Supreme Court of Justice unanimously rejected the request for judicial aid, finding the applicant failed to meet statutory requirements. The applicant argued for financial support to cover legal fees and court costs, but the court found insufficient economic means and an unviable legal claim. Consequently, the provision of judicial aid was denied as both statutory prerequisites were not satisfied.
