The court dismissed the appeal for uselessness because the author's original claim had already been rejected in a previous judgment. The appellant attempted to challenge the citation order, but this issue lost relevance since the primary legal question was resolved earlier. Consequently, the court ruled that no further examination of the appeal was necessary.
