The Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the review appeal because it sought benefits superior to those granted in the appeal and introduced new legal questions. The appellant argued for a broader remedy, but the court held that review appeals are strictly limited to the scope of the original appeal under Article 684 of the Civil Procedure Code. Furthermore, the court rejected the claim of procedural bad faith as it lacked the requisite dolus malus, citing Article 956 of the same code.
