The Constitutional Court refused to hear the appeal filed by Caminhos de Ferro Portugueses against a lower court decision. The court determined that the current proceedings did not raise any constitutional issue distinct from one already resolved in a previous ruling by the same section. Consequently, the appeal was not examined, and the appellant was ordered to pay the court costs.
