Judicial aid cannot cover court fines under CPC Art. 145(5) and (6) as they are not preparatory costs.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Tribunal da Relação of Lisbon dismissed the appeal regarding the scope of judicial aid for a civil case. The applicant argued that total exemption from costs should include the fine imposed under Article 145 of the Civil Procedure Code. The court held that such fines are punitive measures distinct from the preparatory costs and expenses covered by judicial aid legislation.
