Summary

The Supreme Court held that the Department of Consumer Affairs (DACO) lacks jurisdiction over a dispute between a contractor and a concrete supplier because the contractor is not a consumer under Law No. 5, reversed the Court of Appeals’ order directing DACO to hold a further hearing, and affirmed DACO’s original resolution ordering the contractor to refund the plaintiffs.
