The Tribunal da Relação do Porto dismissed the appeal, ruling that the seven-day extension for filing criminal appeals under Article 192 of the Judicial Costs Code does not apply when the required court fee remains unpaid. The appellant argued for the extended deadline, but the court held that Article 187 limits fee exemptions to the specific tribunal receiving the appeal, excluding the appellate court in this scenario. Consequently, the failure to pay the fee within the standard period rendered the appeal inadmissible, and the court clarified that such dismissal is appealable, not subject to a specific type of objection.
