The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's decision, rejecting the appellant's claim that a breach of hearing continuity rendered the trial void. The appellant argued that irregularities in the oral hearing's flow violated fundamental procedural principles, while the court found no substantive harm to the trial's integrity. Consequently, the court ruled that such minor irregularities do not constitute grounds for nullity under the Civil Procedure Code.
