The Tribunal da Relação do Porto annulled a default judgment against the defendant for issuing an unpaid check. The court found the lower court's decision legally flawed because it failed to assess the property damage, a mandatory element of the crime under the 1927 Decree. Consequently, the judgment was set aside and a new trial was ordered to address the omitted damages.
