The court dismissed the guarantor's appeal regarding a request to call the defendant as an author. The guarantor argued that the defendant's plea of non-authorship should extend to them, but the court found this legally unfounded. Consequently, the request to summon the defendant was rejected as the guarantor lacks the right to adopt the defendant's specific defense.

SUMÁRIO Não sendo o chamamento à autoria um meio de defesa do devedor, não o será também do fiador.
