The Tribunal da Relação do Porto ruled that the failure to hear the respondent in a precautionary measure constitutes a nullity under Article 201(1) of the Civil Procedure Code. The court held that while the general rule requires the respondent's hearing, explicit dispensation is permitted only when the respondent's knowledge would jeopardize the measure's effectiveness. Consequently, the nullity was allowed because the hearing was omitted without justification or explicit waiver.

II - A preterição dessa audição, quando injustificada, constitui nulidade prevista no artigo 201 n.1 do Código de Processo Civil, que deverá ser atempadamente arguida.
