Legislator summary

AI generated

The court ruled that appointing a judicial section chief without a law degree requires preference based on service category and classification. The appellant argued that his disqualification was invalid because it lacked an explicit statutory basis and failed to function as a legal penalty. The court held that such disqualification must stem from a clear legislative provision and that any penalty must be a direct consequence of that law.

SUMÁRIO

No provimento de lugares de chefes de secção das secretarias judiciais, quando o provimento não recair em diplomados em Direito, atender-se-a sucessivamente, como motivo de preferencia, a categoria e classificação de serviço dos concorrentes.

A impossibilidade de ser nomeado tem de resultar de disposição expressa da lei, e, quanto a penas, ha-de ser uma das suas consequencias.
