The Supreme Court dismissed the review petition due to the non-appearance of the counsel who had originally represented the case. According to the Supreme Court Rules, the same counsel must appear and argue the review petition. Since the required counsel did not appear and no valid grounds were presented, the application was dismissed. The Court emphasized the importance of having the same legal representation in review cases to maintain consistency and uphold judicial standards. |
