Nine out of ten STF ministers dealt with the Master case in some way on the eve of the trial

oglobo15 September 2026 at 11:00

Of the ten ministers of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), nine dealt in some way with the Master case, which involves investigations into Banco Master. Only Minister Cármen Lúcia was not directly involved in the crisis among the Court's colleagues. The case will have a new chapter this Tuesday, when the plenary analyzes the Federal Police report with the dialogues between the parties.

The confrontation escalated after Minister André Mendonça made public messages exchanged between Daniel Vorcaro, the CEO of Banco Master, and Alexandre de Moraes. The two ministers have been the central characters of the latest developments in the Court's crisis.

Minister Dias Toffoli was the first to have his involvement in the case revealed. He left the rapporteurship of the case in February of this year, after admitting that he was a partner in a company that sold a resort in the interior of Paraná to a fund belonging to Vorcaro's brother-in-law.

Why this matters

The trial directly affects the functioning of the STF and the Court's credibility, since nine out of ten ministers are involved to some degree in the crisis, which could impact future decisions on financial investigations and the balance of power in Brazil.
