The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's decision regarding a procedural notification to a sub-stabbed lawyer. The plaintiff argued that the notification was valid because it reached the lawyer who held full representation powers and was the one listed in the case files. The court ruled that since the sub-stabbed lawyer possessed the same representative authority as the original counsel and the notification was properly received at the indicated professional address, the procedural requirements were met.
