Atcor said the ruling by the three-judge panel of the Court of Appeal was incorrect and seriously questionable in light of established Supreme Court doctrine. The legal avenues to be examined in an attempt to have the ruling reversed could include filing a petition for Supreme Court review the company added. Reuter
