The establishment of the truth of which it is convinced and for which it has stated the evidence constitutes an implicit response dismissing those statements and arguments. - The trial court may adopt the expert's report submitted in the action as an element of evidence. Its adoption thereof. Its consequence. It is deemed part of the judgment, so the court is not obliged to respond separately to the challenges directed against it. The reason for this.
