Uncertainty over Moraes should make session against Mendonça unfeasible, says Lenio Streck
The Court must first decide whether or not to accept the procedural question to unify the cases, states the jurist
TL;DR
- The Supreme Court's indecision on a procedural question may prevent a discussion about investigating Minister André Mendonça.
- Ministers are split on whether to consolidate investigations involving Ministers Moraes and Mendonça.
- Minister Flávio Dino's request for more time to review the cases could delay the decision until after the elections.
- There is a debate about whether the President of the Supreme Court has the right to a 'qualified vote' in case of a tie.
