The Tribunal da Relação do Porto declared the criminal procedure extinguished regarding the post-dated cheque, mandating the process continue for the civil claim. The prosecution argued for dismissal based on the nature of the instrument, while the defense sought civil redress. The court ruled that the specific statutory provisions require the criminal track to end, allowing the civil action to proceed independently.
