Supreme Court dismissed appeal on civil procedure code applicability to post-2000 judgments based on judgment date.

The Supreme Court dismissed the appellant's appeal regarding the applicability of the Civil Procedure Code to a second-instance judgment rendered after July 1, 2000. The appellant argued that the pre-2000 version of the code applied because the underlying claim was adjudicated in June 2000, while the opposing party contended the new code governed the appeal process. The court ruled that the date of the second-instance judgment determines the applicable procedural code, thereby validating the lower court's dismissal based on the new code's higher monetary threshold.
