Supreme Court Justice Cristiano Zanin has been involved in several significant legal developments in Brazil. In late August 2026, Zanin issued rulings concerning judicial oversight and privacy. In the context of Operação Sisamnes, he ordered the removal of electronic monitoring from lawyer Flaviano Taques, citing the disproportionate duration of the investigation. Additionally, Zanin upheld the requirement for judicial orders before internet service providers can share connection logs with authorities to protect user privacy. By early September 2026, the focus shifted to a data leak involving Zanin. Confidential fiscal and banking data belonging to the Justice and his family members were exposed during the Senate candidacy registration of former prosecutor Deltan Dallagnol in Paraná. The leaked information originated from 2019 investigations related to Operation Lava Jato and included records from confidential proceedings within the National Council of the Public Ministry (CNMP). The documents involved financial details of Zanin, his ~~wife,~~ wife Valeska Zanin, his father-in-law, a sister-in-law, and his former law firm. Dallagnol’s defense claimed the submission was intended for transparency and to contest challenges to his candidacy, asserting they had “no intention of exposing private data.” In response, the President of the TRE-PR, Luciano Carrasco Falavinha Souza, has given Dallagnol 24 hours to provide an explanation. The court has imposed immediate judicial secrecy on the documents and referred the matter to the Public Ministry for investigation. Zanin has requested legal and criminal accountability regarding the exposure of his private data.
