Unofficial summary in English. The judgment is published in Portuguese only, and only the Portuguese text is authentic.
A former public employee, convicted in absentia of embezzlement and forgery, lodged an extraordinary appeal on grounds of unconstitutionality against a Supreme Court judgment that, after annulling the proceedings, placed him under an identity and residence undertaking, invoking the principles of legality, impartiality and equality. The Court dismissed the appeal, since there was not yet a decision on the charges and ordinary remedies had not been exhausted, noting that the time limits for precautionary measures had already expired.
