The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa dismissed the appeal regarding the conversion of a fixed-amount fine into alternative imprisonment. The appellant argued for the substitution of the monetary penalty with custodial detention, but the court found no legal basis for such conversion under the cited statutes. Consequently, the decision upheld the requirement to pay the fine as originally quantified by law.
