Brazilian court rulings on personal injury indemnities
Overview
Recent judicial rulings in Brazil have addressed various cases of personal injury and liability.
In Araquari, Santa Catarina, a court ordered an individual to pay approximately R$ 3,585 in compensation to a nursing technician following an assault at a health unit. The ruling included R$ 3,000 for moral damages and R$ 585 for property damage to a mobile phone. Although the defense argued the aggressor was experiencing a severe psychiatric crisis, the judge ruled that the individual’s condition did not exempt them from the obligation to repair damages.
In Minas Gerais, the Court of Justice upheld a ruling requiring the municipality of Araçuaí to indemnify a sanitation worker who suffered partial vision loss after being struck by a stone. The court ordered R$ 30,000 for moral damages, R$ 30,000 for aesthetic damages, and a monthly pension. The court rejected municipal arguments regarding third-party liability, instead identifying the incident as a failure in public service provision due to insufficient safety and caution.
