The Supreme Federal Court (STF) maintained the 13.23% adjustment for federal employees of the Judiciary and the Public Ministry affiliated with SindJus-DF, by denying a rescissória filed by the Union. The monocratic decision was signed by Minister Nunes Marques on the 24th, ruling the Appeal in Extraordinary Resource (ARE) 1,585,970 groundless.
A rescissória is a type of motion filed after a case has become final. In the case at hand, the STF specifically analyzed whether the rescissória filed by the Union was admissible, not the merits of the adjustment itself.
This is because when the Supreme Court ruled on Theme 1,061, which recognized as unconstitutional the incorporation of the 13.23%, SindJus-DF already had a favorable ruling for its employees that had become final. Given this, the Union attempted to file a rescissória to overturn this specific ruling.
The decision does not mean, however, that the amount will be immediately applied to the employees. The Union can still appeal the decision, and the process remains pending.
