Legislator summary

AI generated

The Tribunal da Relação do Porto declared the judicial aid request inadmissible because it was filed after the final judgment on the merits. The applicant argued for retroactive support, but the court held that the law requires the request to occur while the action remains open. Consequently, the decision was revoked to uphold the procedural bar against late applications.

SUMÁRIO

I - A lei exige que o requerimento a solicitar apoio judiciário ocorra enquanto a acção não estiver finda, o que equivale a dizer que é possível requerer esse apoio desde que não haja trânsito em julgado de sentença que tenha conhecido do mérito da causa.
