Legislator summary

AI generated

The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa dismissed the prosecution against an accomplice who voluntarily desisted from completing the attempted crime. The court held that for attempts to cease being punishable, the agent must voluntarily abandon the execution, making remorse unnecessary. This ruling clarifies that voluntary desistance alone suffices to exempt the accomplice from criminal liability.
