In legal disorder that prevails in the country, in which a higher court determines the removal of a governor without taking into account the complaint against him, that his defense has been expressed and that he himself has been heard, everything is done possible.
And so it is possible, although it may seem incredible, that a judge of first instance decides to reflect on whether or not to comply with a decision of the Supreme Court.
Isn’t that amazing? But that’s how it is. Read what Folha reports. I’ll be right back.
Minister Ricardo Lewandowski, of the STF (Supreme Federal Court), determined on Wednesday (2) a period of 48 hours for the Lava Jato stick in Curitiba to deliver to former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) a copy of the content of the agreement Odebrecht clemency that refers to or concerns it. The measure is yet another setback for Lava Jato, which faces a confrontation with the PGR (Attorney General’s Office) and lost coordinator Deltan Dallagnol on Tuesday (1), who decided to withdraw from the Curitiba working group. for familiar motives.
Lewandowski’s decision was made after the Second Panel of the Supreme Court, in early August, granted the former president restricted access to clemency agreements signed between the contractor and the Lava Jato task force. The lawyers now argued before the Supreme Court that, despite what was decided by the collegiate, the 13th Federal Court of Curitiba, led by Judge Luiz Bonat, did not allow the PT to access the documents.
This Wednesday’s measure should further postpone the conclusion in the first instance of the process that deals with the purchase by Odebrecht of land for the Lula Institute, in São Paulo. This action is the last of the three open against the PT in Curitiba and the only one that has not yet been sentenced. The case has been pending in Paraná since 2016 and was ready for sentencing, but ended up having steps reviewed since last year.
The defense’s access to this evidence may also affect another of Lula’s ongoing trials, which deals with reforms to a site in Atibaia (SP), which has already been tried in the second instance. Lewandowski said in an order that Judge Bonat, without legal justification, was submitting the Supreme Court’s decision to a “convenience analysis” of the signers of the clemency (Odebrecht and the Federal Prosecutor’s Office), whose interests are “clearly in conflict with those of the defense “.

Return
Folha’s text speaks of another setback for Lava Jato. No. The setback occurred when the Second Panel, with good reason, determined Lula’s access to the leniency agreement.
What we have, in the case of the 13th Federal Court of Curitiba, where so many sorceries have been born, is the clear resistance of a judge to follow the decision of the Supreme Court.
Note: Luiz Bonat was behaving like a judge of the Supreme Court decision. The court determined, and now, he was left to think …
That’s too much!
