Questão jurídica principal
Whether the respondent community was properly represented in the action despite no separate assembly resolution authorizing counsel
Decisão extraída
The challenge was not upheld; the defect, if any, was not so serious as to make the representation void, and the appellant should have objected in time.
Fundamentação extraída
The action is directed against the community, which has limited procedural capacity. Any defect in authorizing counsel could have been challenged under the rules on contesting community resolutions, and it was not an absolute nullity.
