These embargoes usually do not change the result of the trial, but seek to clarify any omissions or errors in the decision.
The estimate on the beginning of the closed arrest involves deadlines for the presentation of the judgment judgment, which brings the votes of the ministers and the final result, and the analysis of appeals.
The publication of the judgment of the trial ended on Thursday (11) may take about 35 days. The defenses would have five more days to present the first embargoes of declaration, and the Attorney General’s Office would manifest itself in another five. Only then would the appeal be tried.
