Court proceedings regarding the succession of the entails of Casa Nova do Basto, founded by Martinho Lourenço, and Quinta de Sezim, founded by Afonso Vasques Peixoto.

Documents produced by the entail.

Acórdão do Desembargo revoking a previous sentence of Juiz das Auções Novas da Relação e Casa do Porto, who judged António de Freitas do Amaral, opponent, as the rightful successor of the entail of Casa Nova do Basto, founded by Martinho Lourenço, and Padre Jerónimo de Amaral, plaintiff, as the rightful successor of the entail of Quinta de Sezim, founded by Afonso Vasques Peixoto. It judges Fernando de Freitas de Mesquita, appellant, as the rightful successor of both entails, because he is simultaneously a legitimate descendant and the closest relative of the last administrator, while the opponent is a collateral relative and the plaintiff is a natural son.
