Legislator summary

AI generated

The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, confirming the defendant's default and ordering payment of interest. The court found that since the plaintiff delivered goods and the debt remained unpaid beyond the 30-day invoice period, the defendant was in mora. Consequently, the court applied Portaria n.262/99 to award interest at 12% because the debt was classified as commercial.

SUMÁRIO

Tendo-se provado que a Autora forneceu à Ré diversos artigos, a pagar no prazo de 30 dias contados da data da respectiva factura, e que, do respectivo valor, depois rectificado para menos, ainda está em dívida certa importância, é de harmonia com a data da factura - 30 dias após essa data - que o devedor está em mora e deve juros à taxa de 12%, por força da Portaria n.262/99, de 14 de Abril, em virtude de a dívida ser comercial.
