Legislator summary

AI generated

The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa dismissed the request for arrolment filed as a preliminary measure in a divorce action. The court held that arrolment cannot apply to the other spouse's own property and must be sought by someone claiming a direct right to the assets, not merely to guarantee debt payment. Consequently, the measure was rejected because it violated the statutory limits on who may request arrolment and what property it may cover.
