The Tribunal da Relação do Porto revoked the lower court's decision regarding late return indemnity in a lease dispute. The appellant argued for a broader compensation standard, while the court emphasized that Article 1045 of the Civil Code strictly limits such indemnity to the actual loss caused by the delay. Consequently, the court held that general rules on damages do not apply, restricting the remedy to the specific criteria outlined in the cited article.
