legal joinder Explanation: cumular. (pedidos, em uma ação cível) join. “These rules are invoked by a plaintiff seeking to join several claims against a defendant, but they also may be used by defendants desiring to assert multiple counterclaims or cross-claims”. "Dicionário de Direito, Economia e Contabilidade", Marcílio Moreira de Castro, p. 105 "In law, a joinder is the joining of two or more legal issues together. Procedurally, a joinder allows multiple issues to be heard in one hearing or trial and is done when the issues or parties involved overlap sufficiently to make the process more efficient or more fair." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joinder Example Sentences "With regard to the plat sponsors, the appellants do not deny their status as necessary parties but instead argue that they received sufficient actual, although informal, notice of the pendency of the action so that their legal joinder was unnecessary." https://casetext.com/case/veradale-valley-v-county-commrs "Where the offense charged in the second count is of the nature of a corollary to the original felony, as in larceny and the receiving of stolen goods, a joinder is good; and whenever there is a legal joinder, the court may exercise its discretion as to an election." https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/3551344/state-v-link/?... |

Concurrent sentence Explanation: See discussion and reference entries. The match between cúmulo jurídico and concurrent sentence is not perfect because the US/UK judge imposes separate sentences of imprisonment for each crime and then orders that they be served concurrently, while the Portuguese judge calculates the sentença do cúmulo on the basis of what would otherwise have been the separate sentences for each offence. Nevertheless, cúmulo jurídico = concurrent sentence is the best match, IMHO. |

Reference: Portuguese Penal Code, Art. 77 Reference information: Artigo 77.º Regras da punição do concurso 1 - Quando alguém tiver praticado vários crimes antes de transitar em julgado a condenação por qualquer deles é condenado numa única pena. Na medida da pena são considerados, em conjunto, os factos e a personalidade do agente. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2021-02-26 11:56:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Cumulo jurídico - De acordo com o artigo 77 C.P., o concurso de crimes é punido com uma única pena. (...) Assim, o juiz deverá determinar a pena aplicável a cada um dos crimes que integram o concurso. Depois, deverá somar as penas concretas, e obtém o limite máximo da pena do concurso. O limite mínimo é a pena concreta mais elevada. Entre estes limites máximo e mínimo será fixada a pena única do concurso a que se refere o mencionado artigo 77. Dicionário Jurídico, Ana Prata e outros, Volume II, pág. 147. https://dre.pt/legislacao-consolidada/-/lc/107981223/201708230100/73473941/diploma/indice |
