The court dismissed the appeal regarding a claim for a right of recourse based on a contract. The plaintiff argued that the right of recourse was established by a contract, while the defendant contended that the existence and specific terms of this contract were not sufficiently proven. The court ruled that under the Civil Procedure Code, proving the existence and terms of the contract is a mandatory prerequisite for establishing such a right of recourse.
