The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's judgment, dismissing the appellant's challenge to the evidentiary assessment. The court held that private documents like invoices are subject to the judge's free evaluation unless they meet specific statutory requirements, and that negative answers to interrogatories do not require detailed justification. Consequently, the appellate court found no error in the first instance regarding the application of these principles.
