Supreme Court dismisses appeal against second-instance court's refusal to exempt defendant from court costs under Civil Procedure Code.

The Supreme Court dismissed the appellant's appeal against the second-instance court's decision refusing to exempt him from court costs. The appellant argued that Article 394 § 1(2) of the Civil Procedure Code allowed such appeals, but the Court clarified that this provision only covers first-instance decisions. The Court determined that cost exemption decisions are incidental rulings governed by separate bankruptcy and civil cost statutes, not final procedural decisions subject to Supreme Court review under Article 394 § 1(2).
