President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva signed the appointment of lawyer Daniela Teixeira to the Superior Court of Justice (STJ). She will join the Brazilian Bar Association (OAB), which opened with the retirement of Minister Felix Fischer.

Aras. At Palazzo Planalto, Lula was advised to consider all candidacies as a single package, so as not to concentrate political power in a single group.
Daniela was considered the strongest candidate among the three names on the OAB list, approved by the STJ, because she had the support of the PT leadership, which included the party president, MP Gleisi Hoffmann (PR), and ministers such as the lawyer – General of the Union, Jorge Messias. Her candidacy was also supported by the Prerogativas group, made up of lawyers close to the PT government, as well as various popular movements and women’s collectives.

In the Supreme Court the controversy centered around two men
The strategy of appointing more women to other vacancies in the Cortes, such as the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) and regional courts, is part of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s attempt to offset the likely choice of a man for a seat in the Court Supreme (STF), in September.
Despite pressure from first lady Rosangela da Silva, Janja, for Lula to nominate a woman for Rosa Weber’s presidency, today the dispute is between two men: the prime minister of the Union Attorney General (AGU), Jorge Messias, and the president of the Federal Court of Auditors (TCU), Bruno Dantas.
So far Lula has not found a woman he trusts to fill the vacancy of current Chief Justice Rosa Weber. Behind the scenes, the president said he wants someone on the court with whom he has the freedom to “exchange ideas.”
