The Supreme Court dismissed the extraordinary review filed by the Patent Office President against a lower administrative decision. The Patent Office initially cancelled a trademark based on confusion with a well-known name, but the Appeals Commission reversed this, relying instead on a different provision regarding the trademark's similarity to the plaintiff's name. The Court held that changing the legal basis in the appeal decision did not constitute a flagrant violation of law, as the applicant failed to demonstrate such a violation or cite specific legal grounds.
