The Tribunal da Relação do Porto revoked a lower court decision that permitted substituting a fine with community work. The defendant argued for this substitution, but the court held that such a measure requires an explicit request or agreement from the accused. Consequently, the substitution was invalid due to the lack of the defendant's express consent.
