The Supreme Court allowed the appeal against the District Court's decision to dismiss the prosecution's complaint. The prosecution had timely filed an objection to the District Court's judgment, but the District Court failed to record this objection in its file, causing the Court of Appeal to dismiss the appeal without examination. The Supreme Court ruled that the procedural defect necessitated remanding the case for proper handling of the objection.
