The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed the lower court's sentence regarding the calculation of spousal food allowances. The appellant argued for a strict arithmetic method based on the difference between expenses and income, while the court emphasized the necessity of equitable judgment. The decision ruled that unpredictable expenses must be considered, as a rigid calculation fails to reflect the actual financial reality of the parties.

SUMÁRIO

I - O cálculo das necessidades alimentares do cônjuge é impossível fazer-se com rigor aritmético, não obstante aquele ter como ponto de partida a diferença, despesas/receitas.

II - Na decisão intervem sempre um juízo de equidade, devendo tomar-se em conta as despesas imponderáveis, que poderão fazer aumentar significativamente as despesas do ano.
