(Telemicro) against the Dominican Institute of Telecommunications (INDOTEL). With this decision, the court fully confirms Resolution no. 080-2022 of the Governing Council of the regulatory body.\n\nThis failure occurs after the file was resubmitted to the TSA by the Third Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice (SCJ) through Judgment n\u00fam. SCJ-TS-25-0203, dated February 26, 2025, after considering that the previous decision incurred a vice of distortion of the facts.\n\nTelemicro sought for the justice to revoke INDOTEL’s resolution, alleging that it was unaware of acquired rights over the use and exploitation of Channel 3 VHF in digital technology, therefore it intended that the corresponding authorization be ordered to be issued.\n\n\n

Telemicro requested that said participation be declared inadmissible, alleging that the company lacked standing and that its alleged rights had been transferred to ADC MEDIA.\n\nThe TSA rejected this approach and declared FRANASYL’s intervention valid, stating that it met the legal requirements and that Telemicro’s objection constituted a defense on the merits.\n\nThe process was declared free of court costs, due to the nature of the case.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
