The Tribunal da Relação do Porto allowed the appeal, recognizing that a third party who acquired inheritance rights before the alienation of an inherited share may exercise the preferential right of co-heirs. The court held that the legal status of co-heir is not exclusive to those named in the will but extends to anyone who validly acquires the inheritance rights prior to the sale. Consequently, the court ruled that such a third party stands in the position of a co-heir for the purpose of exercising the preferential right.

SUMÁRIO

O direito de preferência, reconhecido aos co-herdeiros na alienação de quinhão hereditário a estranhos, pode ser exercido por quem, não tendo inicialmente a qualidade de herdeiro, tiver adquirido, antes daquela alienação, o direito de algum dos herdeiros à herança, designadamente por arrematação judicial.
