The Tribunal da Relação do Porto extinguished the contraventional procedure due to the expiration of the prescription period. The prosecution argued for suspension of the timeline, but the court found the original 1982 law provided solely for interruption. Consequently, the court ruled that without statutory suspension, the procedural clock continued uninterrupted until expiration.
