STF Reassigns Banco Master Case to André Mendonça After PF Report Citing Toffoli

Overview

• Following a closed meeting, the court said Dias Toffoli asked for redistribution, unanimously rejected grounds for a suspicion claim, validated his prior acts, and issued a note of personal support.
• New relator André Mendonça scheduled a briefing with Federal Police delegates to obtain a full status update and next steps in the Master investigations.
• The PF delivered to the court a report extracted from Daniel Vorcaro’s cellphone with references to Toffoli; the minister acknowledged a past stake in Maridt Participações tied to the Tayayá resort and denied receiving any payments from Vorcaro or relatives.
• Toffoli’s office stated that the PF sought to declare him suspect, but the Federal Police has not confirmed making such a request, leaving the claim in dispute.
• Congressional pressure escalated with fresh impeachment filings and CPI pushes, including a Senate crime-organized CPI plan to vote on summoning Toffoli after Carnival, while the PF also probes a suspected leak of Vorcaro’s November 17 arrest order.
