The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa denied the request to challenge a precautionary measure based on witness testimony. The applicant argued that the witnesses lacked knowledge of the facts, but the court noted the testimony was never reduced to writing. Consequently, the court ruled it could not verify the witnesses' knowledge or credibility without a written record.

SUMÁRIO

I - Os embargos são o meio próprio para infirmar os fundamentos em que assentou o deferimento da providência cautelar;

II - A Relação não pode controlar se as testemunhas tinham ou não conhecimento dos factos sobre que depuseram, dado a prova não ter sido reduzida a escrito.
