The Judiciary and the Federal▁Prosecutor's Office have▁informed the▁Supreme Court that▁they▁need▁additional R $ 533▁million to▁pay the▁damages,▁called penduricalhos,▁whose▁validity▁has▁been▁confirmed by the Court. The total▁amount is▁included in a▁request for▁clarification▁submitted by the Union's▁Attorney General▁after the▁finding of a▁lack of▁budget▁allocation▁provided for in the 2026▁budget to▁cover▁expenditure. The Judiciary▁requires R $ 208,9▁million for▁payments,▁while the Public▁Prosecutor▁calculates an▁expenditure of R $ 324▁million.

The▁lack of▁resources may▁compromise, for▁example, the▁payment of the Valuation Part by Time of Antiquity in▁Career (PVTAC),▁equivalent to the▁sum of 5% of the▁salary of▁judges and▁prosecutors▁every▁five▁years of▁work,▁limited to 35% of the total▁value. The▁bodies▁informed the AGU that▁they▁completed the▁survey of the▁financial▁impact▁resulting from the▁implementation of the▁PVTAC and the▁other▁authorized▁parcels,▁identifying the▁insufficient▁resources to▁cope with the▁expenses. ▁Given the▁lack of▁budget▁forecast, the▁Attorney General of the Union▁asks the▁Supreme Court to▁advise on the▁appropriate▁procedure to▁comply with the judicial▁decision that▁authorized the▁payment of the▁benefit.
