Legislator summary

AI generated

The Tribunal da Relação do Porto dismissed the criminal instruction request because the defendant failed to pay the required court fees and fine within the statutory deadline. Although the defendant later applied for legal aid, the court ruled that such aid does not have retroactive effect to validate the initial procedural default. Consequently, the request for instruction was declared without effect due to the non-payment of the financial obligations.

SUMÁRIO

I - Notificada a arguida para o pagamento da taxa de justiça e da multa a que alude o artigo 145 n.6 do Código de Processo Civil por ter requerido instrução nos três dias subsequentes ao decurso do prazo, fica sem efeito o requerimento, se as respectivas importâncias não forem pagas.

A tal não obsta a concessão posterior de apoio judiciário, o qual não tem efeitos retroactivos.
