Object.finalize() is called by the Garbage Collector sometime after the object became unreferenced.
Overloading this method is misleading:

 The overload will not be called by the Garbage Collector.
 Users are not expected to call Object.finalize() and will get confused.

Another name should be picked for the method.
Noncompliant Code Example

public void finalize(int someParameter) {        // Non-Compliant
  /* ... */
}

Compliant Solution

public void someBetterName(int someParameter) {  // Compliant
  /* ... */
}
