The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's judgment granting labor credits priority over a prior mortgage. The appellant argued that the earlier mortgage should supersede the statutory privilege, but the court upheld the specific provisions of the relevant decree. Consequently, the decision stands, establishing that the real estate privilege for labor claims prevails regardless of the mortgage's chronological order.
