The Tribunal da Relação do Porto confirmed a lower court's decision to cumulate two distinct suspended prison sentences with their associated fines into a single unitary penalty. The defendant argued against this procedure, but the court found no legal obstacle to combining these judgments from different tribunals. Consequently, the court ruled that a new suspended sentence could be imposed, conditioned on the payment of both original fines.

SUMÁRIO

I - Condenado o mesmo arguido por sentença transitada em julgado, em tribunais diferentes, em pena de prisão e no pagamento de determinada quantia ( pena declarada suspensa na sua execução sob condição do pagamento dessa quantia ) e em pena de prisão e no pagamento de outra quantia, não há qualquer obstáculo legal a que posteriormente se proceda ao cúmulo jurídico dessas penas, fixando-se uma pena unitária cuja execução pode ficar suspensa, condicionada ao pagamento de ambas aquelas quantias.
