¶1delivered the opinion of the court.
¶2When this court dismisses an application for a writ of certiorari, saying simply “Petition denied”, very generally no reference is made to the merits of a possible appeal. The denial may be because no matter of jurisdiction or procedure is presented, that an adequate remedy lies, etc., or the writ may be denied discretionally for various reasons. Such a dismissal furnishes no basis for an argument that an appeal in due course is frivolous.

Avalo Sánchez v. Estate of Diaz, 9 P.R.R. 306; Sucs. Abarca v. Central Vannina, 23 P.R.R. 526. At least the appellee has not convinced ns to the contrary.
¶4The motion to dismiss will he denied.
