The Supreme Court overturned the Regional Court's dismissal of an appeal due to an incorrect value designation. The appellant argued that the error was merely formal, while the lower court treated it as a substantive defect requiring correction. The court ruled that under the Civil Procedure Code, the value designation is a formal requirement satisfied by any indication of the claimed amount, making it non-substantive and not subject to dismissal.
