Questão jurídica principal
Whether traveling without a valid ticket was criminally punishable after repeal of the LTP
Decisão extraída
No; after repeal of the LTP, the LTV and OTV did not contain a specific penal provision covering mere travel without a valid ticket, so conviction was excluded.
Fundamentação extraída
A refusal to proceed is justified only when conviction can be ruled out with certainty. The LTV merely reserves criminal prosecution and does not itself create a sufficiently precise sanction. Article 57(1)(a) LTV covers only self-validation on a route where validation was required, not the broader conduct alleged here.
