The court dismissed the appeal for nullity because the challenged decision had already become final and effective, leaving no room for review. The appellants argued for the annulment of a lower court ruling, but the court noted that their own arguments contradicted the desire to overturn a decision that had already transited in judgment. Consequently, the court ruled that the proper forum for such nullity claims is the tribunal that originally committed the alleged error, not the superior court at this stage.

SUMÁRIO

I - Contradizem-se a si mesmos os agravantes ao pretenderem ver triunfar uma decisão por eles mesmos impugnada e que deixaram transitar.

II - O conhecimento das reclamações por nulidade pertence, em regra, ao tribunal que a comete, nos termos do artigo 206, n. 2 do Código Processo Civil, só podendo, em certas hipóteses, ser apreciada pelo tribunal superior - artigo 205, n. 3 do mesmo Código.
