The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against a lower court's rejection of a retrial request. The appellant claimed new facts emerged after the first-instance judgment, but the court held that such circumstances must have existed prior to the final decision to qualify for retrial. Consequently, the court ruled that the appellant could not have reasonably utilized these facts or witnesses during the original proceedings.

Art. 403 § 2 k.p.c.; Art. 410 § 1 k.p.c.: A request for retrial under Art. 403 § 2 k.p.c. is only admissible if new facts or evidence existed before the conclusion of the proceedings, meaning circumstances discovered after the final judgment cannot serve as a basis for reopening the case.
