The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's judgment regarding a construction contract dispute. The court held that the price element, whether precisely or imprecisely indicated, is a constitutive factor of the contract and the foundation for any rights claimed thereunder. Consequently, the appeal was rejected because the price remains an essential component defining the contractual relationship and the associated obligations.
