Legislator summary

AI generated

The appellant argued the decision was obscure and ambiguous, but the court found the text intelligible and capable of only one reasonable interpretation. Consequently, the request for clarification was rejected as the legal requirements for obscurity were not met.

SUMÁRIO

A obscuridade de acordão traduz-se na sua ininteligibilidade e a sua ambiguidade verifica-se quando a decisão, no processo considerado, puder razoavelmente atribuir-se dois ou mais sentidos.
