If the definition of the concept of absolute and permanent disability, contained in a specific clause of an insurance contract, was excluded from the contracts in the case files because its meaning was not properly explained to the policyholder, considering that, without this explanation, the policyholder could not expect absolute and permanent disability to be defined in this way, then it cannot be accepted that, in interpreting the other clauses according to the general criteria for interpreting contractual statements, the meaning of the excluded definition be attributed to that expression. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>II. The jurisprudential orientation of the Supreme Court of Justice is upheld, according to which, in order to fulfil the concept of absolute and permanent disability not defined in the contract, \u201cdisability (...) which, in concrete terms, translates into restrictions which, given the specific efforts, abilities and qualifications of the profession exercised, make it impossible to continue in that profession or another with comparable income\". III. The allegation and proof of the existence of \u2018an imbalance in the benefits that seriously undermines good faith\u2019 for the purposes of declaring the nullity of contracts under Article 9(2) of the LCCG is the responsibility of the insurer (see Article 342(1) of the CC) and involves the allegation and proof of the amounts in question; without this, it is not possible to determine whether or not there is an imbalance between the benefits that is so significant that it violates the principle of good faith.<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, in the scope of <a href=\"https:\/\/inpi.justica.gov.pt\/Noticias-do-INPI\/Portugal-mantem-31%C2%AA-posicao-no-Indice-Global-de-Inovacao-da-OMPI\"><strong>Miscellaneous<\/strong><\/a>, it should be noted that the results of the Global Innovation Index (GII) 2025 were presented by the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) in Geneva.

If that condition is not met, the termination of the employment contract following the worker's refusal to accept that change constitutes a termination of that contract on the initiative of the employer for one or more reasons not related to the workers' personal circumstances, within the meaning of the second subparagraph of Article 1(1) second paragraph, of that directive, and must therefore also be taken into account in calculating the number of redundancies that have occurred.<\/p>\n<p>2) Article 2 of Directive 98\/59 must be interpreted as meaning that: the information and consultation of workers' representatives that takes place prior to the conclusion of a collective agreement on internal mobility may be regarded as consultation within the meaning of that article, provided that the information obligations laid down in number 3 thereof are complied with.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX:62024CJ0249\"><span>https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX:62024CJ0249<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div id=\"ju2\" class=\"x-text offset-anchor\" style=\"\" ><p><strong>IV.2.

Appeal.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Summary:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>I. If the definition of the concept of absolute and permanent disability, contained in a specific clause of an insurance contract, was excluded from the contracts in the case files because its meaning was not properly explained to the policyholder, considering that, without this explanation, the policyholder could not expect absolute and permanent disability to be defined in this way, then it cannot be accepted that, in interpreting the other clauses according to the general criteria for interpreting contractual statements, the meaning of the excluded definition be attributed to that expression. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>II. The jurisprudential orientation of the Supreme Court of Justice is upheld, according to which, in order to fulfil the concept of absolute and permanent disability not defined in the contract, \u201cdisability (...) which, in concrete terms, translates into restrictions which, given the specific efforts, abilities and qualifications of the profession exercised, make it impossible to continue in that profession or another with comparable income\". III. The allegation and proof of the existence of \u2018an imbalance in the benefits that seriously undermines good faith\u2019 for the purposes of declaring the nullity of contracts under Article 9(2) of the LCCG is the responsibility of the insurer (see Article 342(1) of the CC) and involves the allegation and proof of the amounts in question; without this, it is not possible to determine whether or not there is an imbalance between the benefits that is so significant that it violates the principle of good faith.<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dgsi.pt\/jstj.nsf\/954f0ce6ad9dd8b980256b5f003fa814\/78ece9ac47806fbf80258d090048ecf0?OpenDocument\">https:\/\/www.dgsi.pt\/jstj.nsf\/954f0ce6ad9dd8b980256b5f003fa814\/78ece9ac47806fbf80258d090048ecf0?OpenDocument<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Supreme Court of Justice\u2019s ruling of September 23, Case n.\u00ba 2715\/21.0T8OER.L1.S1: <\/strong>Necessary consortium.

Centre of main interests. International jurisdiction of the court. De facto administration. Appointment of the insolvency administrator.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Summary<\/u><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI. Since the location of the debtor company's centre of main interests (CMI) is under discussion, by stating in the proven facts that the actual and effective registered office corresponds to the address of the previous statutory registered office, the court is already responding to one of the issues under discussion. Since the determination of the registered office is essential for assessing the international jurisdiction of the court, we will always be faced with a question of law, which cannot be answered in the context of a decision on the facts, but only in a legal forum and based on the facts presented and demonstrated in the case file.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>II. In order to assess international jurisdiction for the opening and conduct of insolvency proceedings, it will be relevant and essential to determine the location of the debtor company's CIP, which does not necessarily have to correspond to the location of the registered office. The presumption arising from the provisions of Article 3(1) of Regulation (EU) 2015\/848 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 May 2015, which establishes such correspondence, may be rebutted provided that it is based on objective elements that can be determined by third parties.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>III. This is the case when, although the debtor company has its registered office in Malta, it does not have any assets or staff there, and no significant activity has been found to have been carried out in that country, the existing activity being limited to the renegotiation of the debt (in Portugal) that it had assumed with the insolvency applicant (underlying the conclusion of bank financing agreements with CGD) and the respective form of settlement (sale of assets in Portugal), in addition to the fact that all contacts between the parties took place in our country, at the address of its former registered office or at the registered office of the applicant creditor.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>IV. Although third parties are required to be able to foresee or recognise the debtor's CIP, and although the Regulation refers to creditors in general, it is not so much the number of existing creditors that must be taken into account, but essentially the claims in question and their respective amounts, as well as the whole context surrounding them and their significance in this case.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>V. A de facto administrator is someone who, without formally holding the position of administrator, in agreement with the person who does hold that position (registered administrator), decides autonomously (not subordinately), acting and exerting a decisive influence on the decisions formally taken by the latter.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>VI. The appointment of the insolvency administrator is the responsibility of the judge presiding over the proceedings, who may take into account the proposal made for this purpose by the creditor requesting the proceedings.<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dgsi.pt\/jtrl.nsf\/33182fc732316039802565fa00497eec\/1d9a7535997fde2f80258d150051d159?OpenDocument\">https:\/\/www.dgsi.pt\/jtrl.nsf\/33182fc732316039802565fa00497eec\/1d9a7535997fde2f80258d150051d159?OpenDocument<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Judgment of the Lisbon Court of Appeal<\/strong><strong>, of September 25, Case no. 2145\/24.2T8PDL-A.L1-2<\/strong>: Bank secrecy.
