The Tribunal da Relação do Porto dismissed the appeal regarding a debt execution based on a promissory note. The plaintiff sought to hold the wife liable as a passive party, arguing she accepted the note for the common benefit of the couple. The court ruled that such acceptance does not create joint liability for the spouse in this context.
