Legislator summary

AI generated

The court ruled that a commercial establishment acquired prior to marriage remains the personal property of the acquiring spouse. Although the business operated as a joint venture, the established facts did not prove the business ever left the individual's patrimony. Consequently, the court held the establishment must be classified as the spouse's own property rather than a common asset.

SUMÁRIO

Não permitindo os factos apurados concluir que o estabelecimento comercial em algum momento haja saido do patrimonio de um dos conjuges deve esse estabelecimento considerar-se bem proprio uma vez que foi adquirido antes do casamento.
