The Supreme Administrative Tribunal dismissed the appeal regarding the necessity of an oral hearing. The appellant argued that a hearing was required under Article 715(3) of the Civil Procedure Code, while the Public Treasury contended the issue was already fully debated. The court ruled that since the matter was raised by one party and the other had the opportunity to respond, the risk of surprise was avoided, rendering the hearing dispensable.

SUMÁRIO

É dispensável a audição a que alude o artº 715º nº 3 do C.P. Civil, sempre que se trate de questão suscitada por uma das partes e a outra tenha oportunidade de, sobre ela, se pronunciar.

Em tais circunstâncias, não ocorre violação do princípio do contraditório pois que prevenido está o risco de decisão - surpresa.
