The Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the request to order the communication of a convicted individual's criminal record for electoral purposes. The defendant, convicted of attempted murder and unauthorized entry into a dwelling, argued that the penalty should affect his civil rights. The court ruled that no criminal penalty inherently necessitates the loss of civil, professional, or political rights, thereby rejecting the order.

Porque nenhuma pena envolve como efeito necessario a perda de quaisquer direitos civis, profissionais ou politicos, não e de ordenar a comunicação, para efeitos eleitorais, da condenação de pessoa condenada pelos crimes de homicidio tentado e introdução em casa alheia.
