STF will resume judgment on the time frame on June 7

The President of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), Minister Rosa Weber, announced that the Court will resume the trial on the time frame for the demarcation of indigenous lands on June 7. The minister announced the date after participating, on the morning of this Wednesday (19), in a forum on monitoring indigenous claims in court. The trial was suspended in September 2021 after a request for a review by Minister Alexandre de Moraes. The trial score is tied at 1: 1: Minister Edson Fachin voted against the thesis, and Nunes Marques was in favor. Understand In the trial, ministers discuss the so-called time frame. According to the thesis, defended by landowners, the indigenous people would only have the right to the lands that were in their possession on October 5, 1988, date of promulgation of the Federal Constitution, or that were in judicial dispute at that time. The process that motivated the discussion deals with the dispute over the ownership of the Indigenous Land (TI) Ibirama, in Santa Catarina. The area is inhabited by the Xokleng, Kaingang and Guarani peoples, and ownership of part of the IL is questioned by the state attorney’s office.
