Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appellant had standing to appeal the refusal to appoint a representation curator for a paternity challenge
Decisão extraída
He had standing only insofar as he invoked the children’s interests; the appeal was admissible on that limited basis.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 420 CC, third-party appeal rights are limited. In representation-curator cases for paternity challenges, the authority considers only the child’s interest; a biological father may appeal only when he relies on that interest.
