The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal regarding the calculation of the third month of pregnancy for labor extension purposes. The lower courts had conflicting interpretations, with the first instance applying calendar months while the second instance relied on medical terminology favoring lunar months. The Court ruled that the third month expires after three lunar months of 28 days each to ensure precise and uniform application of the law without error. Consequently, the appeal was rejected, and the costs were awarded to the plaintiff.
