Questão jurídica principal
Whether the reform appeal against an interlocutory decision was admissible under former Art. 50 OJ.
Decisão extraída
Yes, because a final decision could be rendered immediately by denying liability and the continuation of evidence would be lengthy and costly.
Fundamentação extraída
If liability were denied, the case would end with dismissal; moreover, damage quantification and indemnity assessment would require substantial further proceedings.
