The Tribunal da Relação do Porto allowed the appeal regarding the enforcement of child support payments. The plaintiff argued for a summary procedure under Article 189 of the Child Protection Act, while the defendant contended for a standard debt collection process. The court ruled that since the case involved solely the non-payment of food allowances without other complex disputes, the expedited regime of Article 189 was the appropriate legal basis.

SUMÁRIO

I - Quando está apenas em causa o incumprimento de uma prestação alimentar, deve ser usado o regime do artigo 189 da Organização Tutelar de Menores, que contém em si as virtualidades suficientes para que, de forma célere e rápida, se dê resposta à pretensão do alimentado.
