The Tribunal da Relação confirmed the lower court's decision, ruling that it lacked authority to alter answers to questions where the evidentiary record was incomplete. The first instance court had addressed a dispute over lease revocation based on the tenant handing over keys, an act indicating mutual intent to terminate the agreement. The appellate court declined to modify the factual findings due to the absence of supporting evidence in the file, upholding the principle that appellate bodies cannot substitute their own evidence for that of the trial court.
