The Supreme Administrative Court of Portugal dismissed Rosa Braga's claim against the Portuguese State for non-provision of a public service. The court held that the right to compensation for extracontractual state liability prescribes in three years from the moment the claimant knows the conditions for such liability. Consequently, the claim was rejected because it was filed after this statutory limitation period had expired.
