The appellant lodged an extraordinary appeal on grounds of unconstitutionality against the Supreme Court judgment concerning the refusal of her request to join criminal proceedings as an assistant prosecutor (assistente), made during the trial hearing to defend her daughter's interests. The Court declined to hear the appeal because, not having applied within the legal time limit, she was not a party to the proceedings and therefore lacked standing to appeal.
