The Supreme Federal Court, the highest court of Brazil, offers through this database a collection of abstracts of SFC judgments, aimed at informing and disseminating Brazilian constitutional case law in foreign languages.
The case abstracts currently available comprise the Supreme Federal Court’s work from the enactment of the Federal Constitution of 1988 until the year 2006. The database will be permanently updated starting in 2006 with the assistance of the cases’ rapporteurs.
The translations to English, French and Spanish are made through a cooperation agreement with Fundação Alexandre Gusmão (FUNAG), associated to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
