Question juridique clé
Whether C. could still challenge the 16 April 2003 presidential order despite not appealing the earlier 24 February 2003 order.
Solution extraite
No. As C. did not timely appeal the earlier order, it became legally binding and could not be revisited.
Motifs extraits
The earlier order was not void, only appealable. A defect of incorrect judicial composition does not automatically create nullity; therefore unchallenged orders become final.
