Ministers at the Supreme Federal Court aligned with Alexandre de Moraes have not given up on trying to merge the trial of the case involving messages exchanged between the magistrate and lawyer Daniel Vorcaro with an action that will involve an investigation into Minister André Mendonça.
Moraes' allies' strategy seeks to "save" their colleague from possible questioning during the trial, which was scheduled to take place on Tuesday.
The case of messages between Moraes and Vorcaro generated controversy and may raise questions about the minister's conduct, which prompted the political maneuvering to link it to another action at the court.
