Supreme The Federal Court (STF ) enters recess after this Friday's session and only returns in August, leaving a wave of uncertainties in the processes going from the politicians investigated to privatisa of ] This week's decisions, taken monocromatically or jointly by the Second Panel, opened the door to new disputes over previous interpretations or have yet to be approved by the plenary, composed of [19659008] Ricardo Lewandowsk granted a provisional order (injunction) that prevents the government from selling, without congressional authorization, the control of stocks of mixed-economy enterprises, such as Petrobras and Banco do Brasil. The decision has yet to be approved by the plenary, which has no date to express itself, but which is already valid, directly affecting the auction of six distribution companies. electricity produced by the public company Eletrobras, scheduled for 26 July.
The measure created a discrepancy between the key figures of the Temer government. The Minister of Mines and Energy, Moreira Franco, one of the main allies of the president, said the federal government is confident that it will be possible to overturn the injunction. The Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies, Rodrigo Maia (DEM-RJ), went on the defense of Lewandowski's decision. He declared to Folha de S.Paulo that in a representative democracy, "the active sale of the state must have congressional approval."
Still in the economic field, the STF between representatives of the productive sector and truckers on the freight table ended without agreement. Faced with deadlock, Minister Luiz Fux, the reporter of the case, decided to push after the holidays and held a public hearing on the issue until August 27, only to take his decision on tabulation – given by the government to truckers to end the strike that stopped the country for 11 days at the end of May
In the political field, the decision on the cancellation requested by the Office of the Attorney General of the benefits of J & F Group executive reward agreements will be for August. The involvement of attorney Marcello Miller in the prosecution of the group's leadership as a prosecutor was one of the reasons that led former Attorney General Rodrigo Janot to seek the termination of benefits. On Thursday, Miller and Joesley Batista, one of J & F's partners became respectively charged with pbadive and active bribery.
The fate of former president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, imprisoned since April 7 in Curitiba, is also expected to remain for the next semester. The decision of the second panel of the Supreme Court – consisting of Lewandowski, Edson Fachin, Gilmar Mendes, Dias Toffoli and Dean Celso de Mello – to grant provisional release to former minister Jose Dirceu (PT) gave a new impetus to Lula's defense.
On Thursday, Minister Edson Fachin appealed in plenary appeal of Lula's defense to suspend the effects of his conviction. It is now up to the President of the Court, Minister Carmen Lúcia, to lead the trial of the last session of the Supreme Court before the break or just a month later, at the doors of the elections.
