The Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the appeal regarding judicial aid, holding that the law does not mandate a specific degree of appeal. The appellant argued that Article 39 of Decree-Law 387-B/87 requires an appeal regardless of value, but the court found no literal basis for limiting the remedy to a single degree. Consequently, the court decided not to grant knowledge of the case, rejecting the interpretation that a specific appeal level is legally necessary.

SUMÁRIO

O artigo 39 do Decreto-Lei 387-B/87, de 29 de Dezembro, deve ser interposto no sentido de que das decisões proferidas sobre apoio judiciário cabe sempre agravo, independentemente do valor, mas não há razões decisivas para interpretar o texto legal em causa no sentido - que nele não tem qualquer efectiva correspondência literal - de que o recurso só é admissível num grau.
