The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the appeal filed by a company against the Municipality of Póvoa de Varzim regarding court fees. The court held that while the case value exceeded 275,000 euros, the appellant failed to demonstrate the necessary good conduct or lack of legal complexity required for a full fee waiver under the relevant procedural rules. Consequently, the decision to collect the remaining balance was upheld as justified.
