The Tribunal da Relação do Porto allowed the arrest of community property shares pending divorce settlement. The applicant argued that the credit was not yet determined but sufficient facts indicated the appearance of the debt. The court ruled that the lack of a fixed amount does not preclude arrest if the underlying facts suggest the credit's existence.

SUMÁRIO

I - Para se decretar o arresto de bens não é necessário que o crédito alegado esteja determinado.

II - O que importa é que os factos indiciem a aparência do crédito invocado, ainda que dependente de acção de prestação de contas.

III - Assim, é de decretar o arresto requerido pelo cônjuge sobre as tornas a que o cônjuge marido tem direito por via da partilha de bens pós divórcio.
