The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's decision regarding the validity of a collective endorsement. The plaintiff argued that the phrase 'we give our endorsement to the subscriber' combined with two signatures constituted a complete collective endorsement. The court ruled that this specific wording is legally equivalent to the standard 'good for endorsement' formula, thereby validating the endorsement despite the non-standard phrasing.
