The Brazilian Free Movement (MBL), through its coordinators Kim Kataguiri and Rubens Nunes, brought an action before the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) for the Court to declare the ineligibility of the Former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT), pre-candidate for the Presidency of the Republic, sentenced and arrested at the Lava Jato operation.

The MBL requests that the TSE prevent "from now on" the application register of the TOP. The court establishes that, after agreement of the party, the party has until August 15 to ask the electoral court the records of the selected candidates.

In the petition, the movement stresses that Lula was sentenced by the Federal Court of the 4th Region (TRF-4) to 12 years and one month in prison for offenses of pbadive bribery and money laundering , and since the release of the decision of TRF-4 "there is no doubt" that Lula "is ineligible", based on the Clean Sheet Law.

"There is no doubt that the possible possibility of a petition from the accused generates severe legal insecurity for Brazilian society," say MBL members. The move also calls for the court to ban Lula from practicing campaign actions, and to be quoted in the polls. The TSE is set back during the month of July
