| Decision |
The petition for re-admission of the appeal was dismissed as incompetent due to the lack of proper authorization from the appellants. The appeal and the petition for re-admission were not signed by the appellants, and the counsel who signed them had not been duly authorized. Therefore, neither the appeal nor the petition could be considered valid in the eyes of the law. This decision underscores the importance of proper legal representation and adherence to procedural requirements in filing appeals. |
