What is the effect of failing to submit new defenses or evidence after the reopening of pleadings at the appellate stage?

⚡ Quick Answer:

If the Court of Appeal overturns a judgment of first instance due to a procedural deficiency and reopens the pleadings, the defendant's failure to submit any new annexes or evidence that refutes the original claim may lead to the judicial panel upholding its previous judgment obligating the defendant.
