The Tribunal da Relação do Porto allowed the resolution of a contract-promissory due to the debtor's negligent breach and the creditor's subsequent loss of interest. The court found that the creditor failed to prove the loss of interest objectively, relying solely on subjective valuation. Consequently, the court ruled that the legal requirements for rescission were not met under the cited civil code provisions.

SUMÁRIO

I - Há fundamento legal para a resolução de contrato, designadamente de contrato-promessa, no caso de mora culposa de uma das partes e de a outra, em resultado dessa mora, ter perdido o interesse na prestação.

II - Essa perda de interesse deve ser apreciada objectivamente, com base em elementos susceptíveis de valoração por qualquer pessoa, e não segundo o juízo valorativo apenas do próprio credor.
