The Supreme Court dismissed the appellant's cassation against a lower court's rejection of his oral appeal filing. The appellant, a lawyer with visual impairments, argued that Article 466 of the Civil Procedure Code allowed him to submit his appeal orally to the protocol. The Court held that this provision applies only to those acting without a lawyer, not to lawyers themselves, as the rule is intended to assist the unrepresented.
