The idea of the São Paulo section. And it is contradictory to discuss ethics and .
The OAB did not provide the academic and social program for the event.
The president of the OAB, Beto Simonetti, stated in January, in an article in the newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo, that these discussions would only be legitimate “if they occurred in a depoliticized manner, respecting judicial independence and involving all actors in the Justice system — especially the legal profession.”
Kassio has been in the spotlight since the revelation that the Master and JBS were linked to his son, lawyer Kevin de Carvalho Marques (25).
In 2008, then lawyer Kassio filed a lawsuit that ordered Toyota do Brasil to pay R$18 million to a dealership, as compensation for the alleged loss of a vehicle.
The compensation corresponded to 212 brand new vehicles.
More than 80% of the value was attributed to moral damages, and R$4 million was executed.
Toyota’s appeal to reverse this conviction began to be judged last Friday (20) in a virtual session at the TJ-PI. The process has been stopped since December 2020.
This Tuesday (24), the rapporteur, judge Manoel de Sousa Dourado, ordered a trial in a face-to-face session, with oral arguments.
Opinion of the former inspector
Kassio’s action was identified by the lawyer and former national inspector, Eliana Calmon, while she was preparing an opinion in a process of interest to Toyota.
She found that lawyer Marcus Vinicius Coêlho, former president of the OAB, also filed a lawsuit against the company, alleging vehicle manufacturing defects.
In this action, Toyota was ordered to compensate a couple (R$7.7 million) for an accident that did not cause “a single scratch”.
The woman was not in the vehicle. The couple claimed “anguish at the possibility of death.”
In 2012, judge José Ramos Dias Filho (died in 2022) ruled in advance on the dispute and ordered Toyota to pay compensation for lost profits.
A “teratological conviction”, according to the company’s lawyers.
The judge responded to several cases in the TJ-PI internal affairs department and the National Council of Justice.
He was compulsorily retired in 2017.

These facts were already known in the Judiciary when, in 2020, Celso de Mello vacated the position, with the support of Marcus Vinicius.
Kassio obtained the approval of Gilmar Mendes, Dias Toffoli and the former TRF-1 inspector, Maria do Carmo Cardoso, considered legal advisor to the Bolsonaro family.
A, which is not common in Supreme Court appointments, out of respect for the person occupying the position.
Kassio’s choice was influenced by senators Flávio Bolsonaro (Republicanos-RJ) and Ciro Nogueira (PP-PI), one of the leaders of the center.
The former president of the OAB also supported, in 2014, the frustrated attempt by Kassio, his fellow countryman, to occupy Gilson Dipp’s seat at the Superior Court of Justice.
There was resistance to magistrates from the legal profession, competing with career judges.
In 2023, Marcus Vinicius was at the lunch that brought together, in Portugal, Gilmar Mendes, the then national inspector, Luis Felipe Salomão, the brothers Joesley and Wesley Batista, and Sidney Gonzalez, from FGV Knowledge, at the Porto Santa Maria restaurant, on Guincho beach, Cascais region.
Other Side
In 2015, Kassio told the column:
“Among the hundreds of cases in which I worked over 15 years, I underwrote and signed initial petitions, as well as sponsored two legal actions in the defense of a former Toyota dealership in Teresina-PI in 2008 before the State Common Court.
In 2011, when I joined the TRF-1, I transferred my powers to another law firm, and from then on, I had no news of the outcome. Until May 2011, the final date on which I acted in these processes, no decision had been made.”
On the occasion, Marcus Vinicius commented:
“Anywhere in the world, when a company puts a consumer’s life at risk, there are pedagogical condemnations. In Brazil, whenever a consumer is victorious, the case gains media coverage and attempts are made to criminalize the decision.”
