Legislator summary

AI generated

The court rejected the criminal appeal regarding a theft charge, ruling that the stolen value of 12 contos was not insignificant. The prosecution argued the amount was trivial, but the court found it represented over one-quarter of the national minimum wage. Consequently, the theft was classified as a significant property crime rather than a minor offense.

SUMÁRIO

Sendo o valor da coisa furtada de 12 contos, de modo algum pode o furto ser rotulado de insignificante, já que corresponde a mais de 1/4 do valor do salário mínimo nacional, ou seja de 8 dias de salários diários.
