Unofficial summary in English. The judgment is published in Portuguese only, and only the Portuguese text is authentic.
A citizen appealed to the Plenary against the order of the President of the Constitutional Court rejecting his extraordinary appeal against a civil judgment of the Supreme Court for failure to exhaust ordinary remedies. The Court upheld the rejection but restated its ground: the application did not specify which constitutional principles, rights or guarantees had been breached, nor did the submissions show any breach; it noted the appellant could still seek review before the Supreme Court.
