BRASILIA – The Vice President Hamilton Mourao commented on Wednesday, 7, about the inconsistencies noted in the curriculum the federal judge, Cassio Marques, indicated for vacancy in Federal Supreme Court (STF) by the president Jair Bolsonaro, revealed by Status. The vice president avoided answering whether Marqués Saturday could be harmed, but insisted that the curriculum itself “has no problem.”
For him Status, The University of La Coruña, Spain, denied having offered the course reported by Marques in its study plan and reported that it was a student of a single five-day course in 2014. Asked by journalists if this could influence the judge’s hearing in the Senate, scheduled for October 21, Mourão replied: “Let him stay there at his hearing. My resume, I’m sure there is no problem, my changes are registered “. , it’s good?”.
On the matter, Marques even justified himself to the senators saying that there was a “mistake” in the translation of the title of the course.. In his opinion, “postgraduate” would be a type of specialization unparalleled by postgraduate studies in the Brazilian mold. The term used, however, has the meaning of postgraduate, in the same line defined by the understanding in Brazil or abroad. The minimum duration, according to the websites specialized in higher education in Spain, is six months. That of the candidate for minister lasted five days. In addition, the university itself says that it took a course and not a postgraduate degree, since it does not even exist in the institution.
Marques’ study plan also mentions two postgraduate courses carried out at the University of Salamanca, Spain: the first, a doctorate in Law, specializing in Administration, Finance and Justice; the second, a post-doctorate in Human Rights. Questioned by the report, the university claimed that the students’ public information is available on the institution’s website. The doctorate appears, in fact, on the university page – with a detail: the thesis was defended just 11 days ago, on September 25. The post-doctorate in Human Rights, however, is not in the public database of the University of Salamanca.
Also in the curriculum of Kassio Marques, it is established: “Post-doctorate in Constitutional Law of the University of Messina, Italy (Universitá Degli Studi di Messina)”, in Italy. The report asked the university whether Kassio, in fact, did this postdoc. A university professor reported that the judge “participated in a series of conferences and seminars in South America and discussed the final research work in Messina.” “In the end, as foreseen in the call, a certificate of participation in the course was issued,” said Mario Trimarchi, head of the course.
In Trimarchi’s response, it is not reported whether the course meets the postdoctoral qualification. However, the Institute of International Education, based in Belo Horizonte, which coordinates the University of Messina and Brazilians interested in the course, reports that it was a post-doctorate. According to information from IIES, the academic work that Kassio Marques described as “postdoctoral” is limited to 80 hours of participation in “discussion seminars” and 150 hours of “research activities”, with only two days at the University. from Messina, to present the research work.
Also noteworthy is the fact that 48-year-old Kassio Marques finished his PhD just 11 days ago and has already completed two post-doctorates in his academic career. The judge also does not use an instrument that is usually used to accredit his academic experience, the Lattes curriculum, a basic tool that is used to attest, in detail, of his training and academic life.
The report of Status It also showed that Planalto’s interlocutors minimized the case, unlike the episode with Carlos Alberto Decotelli, who was appointed to the Education portfolio in June but fell before taking office. The assessment is that there is no risk that Marques’s name will suffer a setback in the Senate. Since last week, when Bolsonaro confirmed his nomination, Marques has been meeting with senators.
That Tuesday the 6th, Mourão said that the pre-Saturday conversations are part of the “liturgy of the office.” For the vice president, parliamentarians need to know the judge to be able to judge him without relying solely on “third party opinions.”
