Overview
- The ruling suspends enforcement of claims covered by the plan for 180 days, providing temporary legal protection.
- Raízen has 90 days to prove it reached the creditor quorum required for court approval, with the notice filed to the CVM.
- The filing went in with initial backing from creditors holding more than 40% of the liabilities included in the workout.
