Tribunal corrects date error in Judgment No. 71 reference, confirms cost exoneration stands
Sep 12 2025
1st Superior Tribunal
The First Superior Tribunal of the First Judicial District resolves a clarification request filed by Galindo, Arias y López, counsel for Juan Luis Bosch Gutierrez, concerning the Tribunal's August 21, 2025 ruling. That ruling, which rejected the defendant's petition to modify the cost order, incorrectly identified the trial court judgment as "Judgment No. 71 of July 9, 2025," when the correct date is January 31, 2025.
The August 21, 2025 ruling upheld Judgment No. 71 and confirmed the exoneration of Lisa, S.A. from costs. However, the dispositive section misidentified the judgment's date. Judgment No. 71 was issued by the Sixteenth Circuit Civil Court on January 31, 2025, not July 9, 2025. The July 9 date corresponds to the appellate ruling in which the First Superior Tribunal modified the trial court's judgment by exonerating Lisa, S.A. from costs.
The Tribunal, having verified the record, acknowledges the error and clarifies the dispositive section of its August 21, 2025 ruling:
The correction does not alter the substantive content of the decision. The ruling exonerating Lisa, S.A. from costs and upholding the trial court judgment in all other respects remains unchanged.
