Explanation:
vgr. is the abbreviation of verbigracia (for example, or for instance).
I am not sure what STS means, but ST could stand for Supremo Tribunal (Supreme Court). I believe they are making reference to a previous case decided by the Supreme Court, whose decision should be followed in this case.
Hope it helps
