The Tribunal da Relação do Porto partially revoked a decision declaring the general mortgage privilege unconstitutional under Article 12(1) of Law 17/86. The court found that interpreting this privilege to take precedence over registered mortgages on the same property violates constitutional principles. Consequently, the specific provision was deemed materially unconstitutional in this context.

SUMÁRIO

A norma do artigo 12 n.1 da Lei n.17/86, de 14 de Junho, é materialmente inconstitucional, na interpretação de que o privilégio imobiliário geral, por si criado, tem preferência sobre hipoteca registada (tendo como referência o bem hipotecado).
