The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's decision to dismiss the plaintiff's retrial request and ordered the case to be remanded for reconsideration. The plaintiff argued for a retrial based on new evidence and a Supreme Court ruling, but the lower court incorrectly assessed these grounds during a closed session. The Supreme Court found the lower court's evaluation of the retrial grounds improper and noted that the wrong court had jurisdiction over the request.
