ExplanationNoted. En respeto a la independencia y autonomía de las Entidades, sobre “dejar de apelar sentencias judiciales”, se resalta que la interposición de un medio impugnatorio obedece estrictamente al ejercicio de un derecho que le asiste a los órganos del Sistema de Defensa Jurídica encargados de representar a las entidades, al formar parte de un proceso judicial (en virtud al emplazamiento realizado por la autoridad judicial), ante la existencia de un fallo que involucra las funciones de la institución, con el objeto que el superior jerárquico efectúe el control eficaz de la resolución judicial expedida en primera instancia. Es a esta consideración y no a otra, a la que se ciñe la actuación recursal de las Procuradurías Públicas, las misma que cuenta con una actuación de naturaleza autónoma y estrictamente jurídica.
