Legislator summary

The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa dismissed the criminal appeal against a conviction for drug trafficking. The defendant argued for a specific evidentiary regime, but the court found the abstract sentence of 1 to 5 years exceeded the three-year threshold required for such leniency. Consequently, the court upheld the conviction and the original penalty without applying the simplified proof procedure.
