The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's decision to order restitution of principal and interest. The plaintiff argued that the contract's nullity due to lack of legal form required full restitution, including interest accrued from the date of citation. The court held that the obligation to restore the status quo ante encompasses not only the principal amount but also the interest calculated from the moment the defect was revealed via citation.
