Revision for miscarriage of justice is strictly limited to clear, manifest errors of law or fact that are apparent on the record and not to be used as a substitute for appeal. New issues cannot be raised unless previously pleaded. Procedural compliance, exhaustion of remedies, and direct interest are mandatory. In employment and insurance, compensation is based on net salary or statutory minimums. Banks are liable for client losses due to negligence. The corporate veil may be pierced for abuse. Human trafficking offenses require proof of intent and acts, not necessarily completion. Witness credibility is assessed contextually, including related or interested parties.
