Portuguese court rejects criminal appeal where failure to notify the accused of the trial date is cured by late argument.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the criminal appeal filed by the accused against a procedural irregularity. The appellant argued that the court's failure to notify them of the designated trial date violated their rights, while the prosecution contended this defect was waived. The court ruled that such a procedural flaw is cured if not raised promptly, rendering the appeal manifestly inadmissible.

SUMÁRIO
I - A falta de notificação ao arguído do despacho que designa dia para julgamento constitui irregularidade processual que se sana quando não arguida tempestivamente.
II - por isso, é manifestamente improcedente o recurso com fundamento exclusivo naquela irregularidade.
