Invoking prescription in a jurisdictional appeal is treated as a factual issue, not a legal one, barring Supreme Court review.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the jurisdictional appeal because the lower court failed to address the prescription defense, classifying it as a matter of fact. The Fazenda Pública argued that prescription was a legal question suitable for Supreme review, while the opposing party contended it was a factual determination. The court ruled that since the first-instance judgment did not examine the prescription issue, it became a factual matter excluded from the Supreme Court's jurisdictional jurisdiction.
