16th Civil Court
Judgment No. 71 had declared ex officio the lack of active standing of Lisa, S.A. and the lack of passive standing of Juan Luis Bosch Gutierrez, denying the accounting claim and rejecting BDT Investments, Inc.'s request to intervene as litisconsorte in the summary accounting proceeding (<law id="pty-83573-21" />). The judgment also ordered Lisa to pay $40,000.00 in costs to the defendant. Both Lisa, through Lcda. María L. Villarreal, and BDT, through Lcdo. Carlos de Icaza Muñoz, challenged the judgment in its entirety. Both the <doc id="pty-83573-21-2025-02-19-a" /> filed by Lisa and the <doc id="pty-83573-21-2025-03-13-a" /> filed by BDT were granted for appellate review.
The grant of suspensive effect stayed enforcement of Judgment No. 71, so the standing determinations, the denial of the accounting claim, and the cost award remained unenforceable pending appellate resolution, preserving the procedural statu quo until the First Superior Tribunal ruled. The case file was transmitted to the First Superior Tribunal, which subsequently issued the <doc id="pty-83573-21-2025-07-09-a" /> of July 9, 2025, modifying the judgment only to exonerate Lisa from the cost award while upholding the remainder of the decision.
