Instituto de Soldadura e Qualidade-Reabilitação (SU), S.A. lodged an extraordinary appeal on grounds of unconstitutionality against the Supreme Court Labour Chamber decision ordering a provisional attachment on the basis of possible labour claims, although the main action had been dismissed. The Court allowed the appeal and declared the decision unconstitutional, as the interim measure had lapsed under Article 382 of the Code of Civil Procedure, in breach of legality, effective judicial protection and the duty to give reasons.
