Questão jurídica principal
Whether the joint appeal by the expropriated owners was admissible.
Decisão extraída
The joint appeal was inadmissible because it sought only confirmation of the same monetary amount on a different legal basis, not a worse outcome for the principal appellant.
Fundamentação extraída
A joint appeal must aim at modifying the judgment to the detriment of the principal appellant; merely changing the legal qualification of the same indemnity does not suffice.
