The court dismissed the appeal regarding the improper intervention of an insurance company in a professional liability dispute. The appellant argued that the insurer should be directly involved, but the court held that the correct procedural mechanism is a summons to the author of the act. Consequently, the request to intervene the insurer was rejected as procedurally inadmissible.
