A citizen applied for an unspecified interim measure to prevent the annotation of the 4th Ordinary Congress of the Partido de Renovação Social (PRS), alleging that the leadership had altered congress resolutions by replacing the election of provincial office-holders with appointment, contrary to the democratic principle.
