AI generated

The Constitutional Court authorized a correction to a previous ruling that incorrectly identified the appellant and failed to apply the lapse rule for costs. The material fact was a clerical error in the prior judgment's device section where the appellant was labeled 'A1' instead of 'A.' The court decided to rectify this under the Civil Procedure Code because the error was material and affected the identification of the party in the costs waiver provision.
