The Tribunal da Relação do Porto upheld the enforceability of a private bank loan document despite the borrower's claim that physical cash delivery never occurred. The court ruled that the mere existence of the signed contract for a consumption loan creates an executive title under Portuguese law, independent of the actual transfer of funds. Consequently, the creditor's right to demand payment was confirmed, establishing that the absence of physical cash delivery does not invalidate the document's legal status as an enforceable title.
