A final and irrevocable court decision enjoys the authority of the res judicata. Thus, a settled dispute can no longer, in principle, be the subject of a new trial, with the same object, the same cause and between the same parties. However, judicial errors crept into final court decisions as a result of several omissions may lead to the resumption of the trial in order to find out the truth. Such a mechanism is governed by the extraordinary remedy of review which is a retraction and at the same time a procedural means by which final judgments are challenged and has as its primary purpose the correction of serious errors.
