Supreme Federal Court Justice Luiz Fux has given Senate President Davi Alcolumbre 10 days to respond to a request for entry and exit records involving eight people, including lawyer Viviane Barci de Moraes and former Banco Master controller Daniel Vorcaro.¹

The case arose from a petition by Curitiba city councilor Guilherme Kilter, who wants the Senate to provide access logs dating from February 1, 2019. His request also covers Fábio Luís Lula da Silva, Antônio Carlos Camilo Antunes, José Ferreira da Silva, Felipe Macedo Gomes, Anderson Cordeiro de Vasconcelos and Américo Monte Junior.¹

Both accounts describe Fux as rejecting, for now, the argument that the material is shielded as personal information. The justice found no apparent “violation of privacy or personal information” in the request for the Senate’s records.¹ The ruling does not itself order the immediate release of the logs; it requires the Senate’s legal representation to set out its position before the court proceeds.²

Kilter’s position, emphasized in the account from the right, is that access to the Senate is inherently relevant to democratic scrutiny. “The record of access to Senate premises constitutes a fact of public life, politically relevant and of collective interest,” he argued, saying transparency would enable social oversight.² He filed three information-access requests on February 4 and 5, 2026, after the Legislature was said to have declined to provide what it characterized as personal information.²

The account from the left places the order within the wider Banco Master-related scrutiny and notes that, after the Senate responds, the case file is to be sent to the Prosecutor-General’s Office for a further 10-day submission.¹ Alexandre de Moraes was initially selected to handle the case but recused himself because his wife is among those named; Fux was then assigned as rapporteur.¹
