The Tribunal da Relação do Porto dismissed the appeal regarding civil liability claims against public entities. The plaintiff argued that the case should be heard by ordinary courts, while the defendant contended that administrative jurisdiction applies. The court ruled that the ETAF explicitly assigns civil liability cases involving the State and public bodies to administrative tribunals, making the ordinary court lack subject-matter competence.
