Acórdão is a masculine noun in the Portuguese language used as a legal term to define a final decision or sentence that, when given by a higher court, serves as a model for resolving similar cases or situations.
Judgments are rendered by collegiate bodies of the Court, that is, all or the majority must agree for the decision to be approved. It is not characterized by monocratic decisions.
This type of final decision takes the name of judgment because it is not taken by just one person or institution, but the from the agreement between all members of the collegiate (set of judges), who after deliberations reach a sentence in set.
The big difference between sentence and judgment is that the sentence is defined only by one judge, while the judgment is the agreement between several judges to reach a final and decisive result.
judgment issued
The written judgment or the act of issuing the judgment means that the collegiate's final decision was transcribed and recorded in a document.
Gross judgment
An illiquid judgment is a final decision defined by a collegiate that still needs to go through a liquidation, that is, definition of amounts, fines and interest rates that will be charged or offered.
