The Tribunal da Relação do Porto dismissed the appeal regarding the calculation of the deadline to request the opening of criminal instruction. The prosecution had accused multiple defendants, and the defense argued the deadline began from the final notification date. The court ruled that the period must be calculated separately for each accused, starting from their individual notification.
