Ministro determinou discriminação de todas as verbas remuneratórias e indenizatórias pagas nos últimos meses.

Overview

  • Minister Gilmar Mendes deemed the MPRJ’s prior explanation insufficient and demanded a complete, individualized list of January and February payments, with exact authorization and disbursement dates and contemporaneous bank submission records.
  • He required a detailed financial program for retroactive payments planned for January to April 2026, with proof they were already in the institutional schedule and a ban on post‑hoc documents to justify programming.
  • Noncompliance may lead to administrative‑disciplinary action, and the National Council of the Public Ministry was notified to consider appropriate measures.
  • Context from earlier rulings: the Court barred allowances based on state laws and initially halted retroactive payouts, later allowing only previously scheduled amounts, with suspension deadlines of 60 days for state‑law benefits and 45 days for those from administrative acts.
  • Press reporting, including by Estadão, has cited roughly R$270,000 per member in such payouts, underscoring the fiscal and reputational stakes for the MPRJ.
