Order: Court denied motions filed by Avícola Villalobos

On November 2, 2023, the Thirteenth Civil Court of First Instance denied motions for clarification and extension filed by Avícola Villalobos, S.A. regarding the judgment issued on July 4, 2023. The plaintiff argued that the term “majority” used in the decision created ambiguity about which documents were excluded from evidentiary value and requested clarification. Additionally, it asked the court to certify certain facts for criminal investigation, based on alleged misconduct by Lisa, S.A.’s legal representative.

The court ruled both motions inadmissible. It found the judgment’s reasoning sufficiently clear and consistent with Article 596 of the Civil Procedure Code. The word “majority” was interpreted to logically exclude all but the explicitly admitted documents. As for the extension request, the court ruled that there were no grounds for a criminal referral and declined to issue a certification to penal authorities. The ruling confirmed that neither ambiguity nor omission justified modifying the original decision.
