Acórdão em Relação (transcription)

Acórdão em Relação judging António de Miranda, opponent, as the rightful successor of the entail of Manuel de Miranda, because he is descendant from Guiomar de Miranda, the institutor's sister, and from Maria de Miranda, her daughter, and condemning Francisco de Sousa Cid and his wife, D. Maria de Sousa, defendants, to relinquish the entail to him, with the income generated since the contested lawsuit. It excludes Pedro de Melo, plaintiff, who received the entail's administration, allegedly vacant to the Crown, from the king, and D. Maria de Sousa, defendant, because her consanguinity was forged and she is the daughter of her mother's second husband, Licenciado Manuel da Costa, and not of Simão de Miranda, the first administrator.

Will chart

He appoints Simão, son of his slave Ana, whom he raised, as administrator of his chapel and heir of his properties, which shall pass, afterwards, to his descendants. As Simão is a minor, he shall live in the house of one of his executors, be educated by them and be married to a noble woman. If Simão doesn't have heirs, or dies, the administration of his properties shall be given to Diogo Rodrigues de Lisboa one of the executors, if he is still alive, but only during his lifetime. After Diogo's death, two thirds of those properties shall be given to Guiomar de Miranda, sister of the institutor, or to her descendants, and another third shall be given to one of Manuel's nieces, daughter of Catarina de Miranda, another of his sisters who is already deceased.
