In Brazil, Supreme Court chief suspends judges’ conflicting rulings
In Brazil, the chief justice of the Supreme Court intervened in a dispute between two judges on Wednesday and suspended their conflicting rulings. The decisions had been made by two of his colleagues. The intervention came amid a dispute over the alleged ties of Justice Alexandre de Moraes to a banker accused of fraud.
Conflicting rulings
The judicial conflict deepened over questions about these alleged ties. The court chief halted the decisions that contradicted each other. In de Moraes’s case, the ties in question are alleged rather than confirmed. The banker in this story is described as a person accused of fraud; this does not mean that his guilt has been established.
