The Supreme Court quashed the appellate court's judgment and remanded the case for a new decision on costs. The plaintiff sought rights to free share acquisition, but the appellate court ruled on issues not explicitly requested, violating procedural limits. The court held that the second-instance judge exceeded authority by deciding on matters outside the original claim without valid statutory basis.
