Legislator summary

AI generated

The court rejected the contentious appeal against a ministerial dispatch that interpreted the law for indeterminate persons without individualizing specific recipients. The appellant argued the act was actionable, but the court held that such generic interpretative acts do not produce legal effects on private parties until an external application act is performed. Consequently, the appeal was declared inadmissible because the challenged act lacked the requisite specificity to be contested directly.

SUMÁRIO

I - O despacho que se limita a interpretar a lei, mandando-a aplicar a pessoas indeterminadas, que não individualiza, e acto generico, cuja generalidade resulta da sua abstracção.

II - Os despachos interpretativos de caracter generico, porque não produzem efeitos na esfera juridica dos particulares sem a pratica de um acto externo de aplicação, não são contenciosamente impugnaveis.
