The Tribunal da Relação confirmed the lower court's decision, rejecting the appellant's request to introduce new witnesses and challenge the formulated questions. The court held that determining the true intent of parties in a public deed of loan requires interpreting the document alongside extrinsic elements. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed because the procedural requests lacked legal basis under the Civil Procedure Code.
