The Tribunal da Relação do Porto dismissed the appeal against a precautionary measure suspending the worker's dismissal. The worker had been notified of the expiration of a fixed-term contract under DL 781/76 and continued working without a new agreement until further notice. The court ruled that since the original contract had lapsed and no replacement was signed, the grounds for suspending the dismissal were absent.

SUMÁRIO

A providência cautelar de suspensão do despedimento não é de decretar se o trabalhador estava vinculado

à empresa por um contrato de trabalho a prazo, se foi notificado oportunamente da caducidade desse contrato, se sem a celebração de qualquer outro contrato se manteve ao serviço e veio posteriormente a haver nova notificação da caducidade do mesmo contrato.
