Abstract

This paper aims to report on the judgment of the Cristiano Paes de Castro v. United Nations and Brazil case (RE 1.034.840) regarding the jurisdictional immunity of international organizations, highlight its most relevant contributions and repercussions so far, and inquire whether the matter is finally set before Brazilian courts. The Brazilian Supreme Federal Court reasserted the immunity rule and established a binding thesis prescribing the observance of jurisdictional immunity granted by treaties. However, the conciseness of the reasoning makes it recommendable to turn to previous precedents for the clarification of the Supreme Court’s views regarding certain issues that are typically argued in immunity cases and were not expressly dealt with in this judgment. In the immediate aftermath, the other courts proceeded to apply the thesis, but a recent ramification may be cause for concern, since the Superior Labour Court has extrapolated this precedent, applying it to foreign States as well.

国际组织在巴西最高联邦法院的管辖豁免

本文旨在报道关于国际组织管辖豁免的Cristiano Paes de Castro诉联合国和巴西案(RE 1.034.840)的判决，突出其迄今为止最相关的贡献和影响，并询问此事是否最终提交巴西法院。巴西最高联邦法院重申了豁免规则，并制定了一项具有约束力的原则，规定遵守条约给予的管辖豁免。然而，由于推理的简洁性，建议参考以往的先例，以澄清最高法院对豁免案件中通常辩论的某些问题的看法，这些问题在本判决中没有明确处理。在此之后，其他法院立即开始适用这一论点，但最近的后果可能引起关注，因为高级劳工法院已推断出这一先例，并将其适用于外国。
