Minister of the STF sends case of the Master bank scandal to the plenary due to a risk of R$ 103.4 billion

The case is at the center of one of the fronts of the Master bank scandal with summons to STF ministers.

"It is worth noting that decisions with general repercussion aim to guide the other Powers and bodies of the Judiciary and those under jurisdiction. If each judge, Court or Panel starts to apply, in a mistaken way, the precedents of this Supreme Court, the system itself loses strength and mitigates its own authority. In view of the above, I submit the judgment of this case to the Plenary of the Federal Supreme Court", says the decision.

The minister states in the order that judging the case in plenary is fully justifiable. He also says that the government “classifies the amounts owed as compensation for the Sugar and Alcohol Sector as a probable risk, reaching the value of R$ 103.4 billion”.
