Legislator summary

AI generated

The court determined that the prohibition on altering legal claims in the second instance, as stipulated by the relevant procedural code, is absolute and is not negated by reserving the right to bring a subsequent claim, which would only permit the assertion of different claims in a separate future proceeding. Consequently, the court ruled that it could not consider the appeal where the appellant sought new or increased claims in the grounds of appeal, although a reduction of the legal claims remains permissible at any stage.
