The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's judgment establishing a servitude of passage over land prohibited from acquisition via usucaption. The plaintiff argued the right existed despite the land's status, while the defendant contended the lack of visible markers invalidated the claim. The court ruled that although usucaption is barred, a servitude can be constituted if it is evidenced by visible and permanent signs.
