Supreme Court Justice Nunes Marques ordered the Prosecutor General’s Office (PGR) to provide a formal opinion within ten days regarding a criminal review filed by Jair Bolsonaro. This procedural step follows a request for review of his current seven year prison sentence, which stems from the January 8, 2023, events involving the invasion of government buildings in Brasília.

The PGR is expected to oppose any reduction of the sentence. While a successful criminal review could potentially reduce the term to two years and three months, the PGR reportedly views the defense arguments as weak and unrelated to the original sentence. The defense has alleged that the Supreme Federal Court applied inconsistent measures regarding access to evidence and data analysis.
