Legislator summary

AI generated

The court dismissed the appeal regarding a power of attorney signed by a collective of workers in self-management representing a managed society. The plaintiff argued the document was invalid because the signatory entity was merely a collective of workers rather than the legal owner of the property. The court ruled that self-management collectives and managed societies are legally distinct entities, requiring the collective itself to sign the procuração as the mandatory lawyer's representative.

SUMÁRIO

I - Colectivo de trabalhadores em autogestão (titular da posse útil) é realidade diversa e distinta da sociedade gerida (titular da mera propriedade).

II - Sendo obrigatório o patrocínio de advogado, a procuração tem de ser passada por esse "Colectivo" enquanto tal.

III - É ineficaz a procuração onde o "Colectivo" outorga em representação da sociedade gerida.
