The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa dismissed the appeal regarding the validity of a citation by edict. The appellant argued for the application of Article 228-A of the Civil Procedure Code to other scenarios, but the court found no basis for such an extension. The decision rests on the principle that citation by edict is a specific exception to the rule of personal citation, strictly limiting its scope to prevent analogical application.

SUMÁRIO

A citação edital constitui uma excepção à regra da pessoalidade da citação, pelo que é vedado o recurso à analogia para aplicar a outros casos o disposto no artigo 228-A do Código de Processo Civil.
