OBS_VALUE: Copyright in Portugal is enforced in the national Intellectual Property Court. In the case of copyright infringement, private individuals whose moral rights have been violated are allowed to file civil lawsuits . In the case of public domain works, the civil lawsuit must be made by the Ministry of Culture. Copyright violation is punishable by seizure of counterfaited products, fines and imprisonment. In cases of flagrant crime different police and administrative authorities have the competence to arrest. Decree-Law 63/1986  applies Article 3 of Directive 2004/48/EC that aims to promote enforcement of copyrights by any measures, procedures and remedies that are effective, proportionate and dissuasive. However, it doesn't impose any mandatory procedure.
