The Supreme Court of Justice partially granted the review regarding future damages in a civil liability case involving a transport accident. The plaintiff argued for specific compensation amounts while the defendant contested the valuation methodology. The court ruled that when exact future damage values cannot be verified, the tribunal must judge based on equity but may utilize labor law pension calculation rules as auxiliary elements for the indemnity computation.

SUMÁRIO

Quando não seja possível averiguar o valor exacto dos danos futuros previsíveis, o Tribunal julgará segundo a equidade, podendo, no entanto, para a fixação do cômputo da indemnização, servir-se de elementos auxiliares, como as regras da lei laboral relativas ao cálculo das pensões.
