1Under Article 37, caput and § 1º, of the Brazilian Federal Constitution of 1988, which constitutional principle of Public Administration explicitly prohibits the inclusion of names, symbols, or images that characterize personal promotion of authorities or public servants in government advertising, official works, and institutional campaigns?

A.Princípio da Eficiência

B.Princípio da Impessoalidade

C.Princípio da Moralidade

D.Princípio da Supremacia do Interesse Público

Explanation: The Principle of Impersonality (Princípio da Impessoalidade), enshrined in Article 37, caput and § 1º, of CF/88, dictates that public administration acts must be attributed to the organ or entity rather than the physical person of the public agent. Consequently, official advertising and communications must possess educational, informative, or social orientation purposes and cannot contain names, symbols, or images for personal aggrandizement.

2Under Article 5º, LXIX, of the 1988 Federal Constitution, which constitutional judicial remedy is designed to protect a clear and certain individual or collective legal right (direito líquido e certo) not covered by habeas corpus or habeas data, when the responsible public authority acts with illegality or abuse of power?

A.Ação Popular

B.Mandado de Injunção

C.Mandado de Segurança

D.Ação Civil Pública

Explanation: Mandado de Segurança is the constitutional remedy provided by Article 5º, LXIX (and Law No. 12.016/2009) to protect a 'direito líquido e certo'—a right whose factual basis is provable immediately through documentary evidence at the time of filing—against acts of illegal administrative authority or abuse of power, provided the right is not protected by habeas corpus (freedom of movement) or habeas data (access to personal records).

3Which entity of the indirect public administration (Administração Indireta) is created exclusively by specific law, possesses public-law legal personality (personalidade jurídica de direito público), and performs typical administrative activities of the State?

A.Autarquia

B.Sociedade de Economia Mista

C.Empresa Pública

D.Fundação Pública de Direito Privado

Explanation: Under Article 37, XIX, of CF/88 and Decree-Law No. 200/1967, an Autarquia is the only entity of the Indirect Administration that is directly created by specific law (whereas others are merely authorized by law) and possesses public-law personality to execute typical, non-commercial state functions with administrative and financial autonomy.

4In administrative law, an administrative act requires five essential formation elements: Competence, Purpose, Form, Reason/Motive, and Object. What defect occurs when an administrative agent acts within their statutory competence but intentionally pursues an objective contrary to the public interest or different from the purpose prescribed by law?

A.Excesso de poder (excess of power)

B.Usurpação de função pública (usurpation of public function)

C.Incompetência territorial (territorial incompetence)

D.Desvio de finalidade / Desvio de poder (misuse of purpose / deviation of power)

Explanation: Desvio de finalidade (or desvio de poder) occurs when the public agent possesses legal competence to practice the act but uses that power to achieve a purpose distinct from the one mandated by the legal norm or to achieve a private/retaliatory goal, contaminating the essential element of 'finalidade' and rendering the act null and void.

5Which attribute of administrative acts empowers the Public Administration to directly execute its own administrative decisions and material acts against third parties, using direct coercion without prior judicial authorization, provided it is authorized by law or urgent?

A.Tipicidade

B.Autoexecutoriedade

C.Imperatividade

D.Presunção de legitimidade

Explanation: Autoexecutoriedade (self-executing power) allows the Administration to materially enforce its decisions (such as interdicting an unsanitary restaurant or seizing illicit goods) directly without needing prior judicial intervention, applicable whenever expressly provided by statute or in urgent situations demanding immediate public protection.

6A federal agency discovers that an administrative operating license was issued in violation of express statutory environmental regulations. Under Brazilian administrative law and STF Súmula 473, what is the appropriate administrative extinction mechanism and its retroactive effect?

A.Anulação (Annulment), which produces retroactive effects (ex tunc) due to the original illegality of the act.

B.Revogação (Revocation), which produces retroactive effects (ex tunc) based on administrative convenience.

C.Revogação (Revocation), which produces non-retroactive effects (ex nunc) based on superseding illegality.

D.Convalidação (Convalidation), which automatically cures all forms of substantive illegality without modifying effects.

Explanation: According to STF Súmula 473 and Article 53 of Law No. 9.784/1999, the Administration must annul (anular) its own acts when contaminated by defects of illegality, because illegal acts cannot generate valid rights. Annulment operates retroactively (ex tunc), restoring the legal situation to the moment prior to the issuance of the illicit act, subject to the protection of bona fide third parties.

7According to Law No. 8.112/1990 (Art. 24), what form of civil service appointment (provimento) occurs when a stable federal civil servant is invested in a position with duties and responsibilities compatible with a physical or mental limitation they suffered, as verified by official medical inspection?

A.Reintegração

B.Reversão

C.Readaptação

D.Recondução

Explanation: Readaptação (Art. 24 of Lei 8.112/1990) is the statutory form of provimento whereby a servant who suffers a physical or mental limitation (attested by official medical board) is placed into a new position compatible with their residual capacity, maintaining equivalent remuneration levels.

8Under Law No. 8.112/1990, if a stable federal civil servant is dismissed from office, and that dismissal is subsequently invalidated by a final judicial sentence, what form of reinstatement applies to this servant, and what happens to the eventual occupant of their previous position?

A.The servant undergoes reversão with back pay, and the occupant is immediately exonerated without right to indemnity.

B.The servant undergoes aproveitamento in another agency, and the occupant acquires functional stability automatically.

C.The servant undergoes readaptação with partial back pay, and the occupant is placed on mandatory unpaid leave.

D.The servant undergoes reintegração with full restitution of rights and salary, while the occupant (if stable) is reconducted to their former post or placed on paid availability (disponibilidade).

Explanation: Under Article 28 of Law No. 8.112/1990, the invalidation of a dismissal by judicial decision results in reintegração with full retroactive payment of compensation and advantages. If the position has been occupied, the occupant (if stable) is reconducted (reconduzido) to their former post without indemnity, utilized in another position (aproveitado), or placed in paid availability (disponibilidade remunerada).

9Pursuant to Article 41 of the Brazilian Federal Constitution of 1988 (as amended by EC 19/1998) and Law No. 8.112/1990, what are the mandatory statutory requirements for a federal civil servant appointed through public competition to acquire tenure/stability (estabilidade)?

A.Three years of effective service in the position and approval in a special performance appraisal conducted by a designated committee.

B.Two years of effective service and a clean disciplinary record verified by human resources.

C.Three years of calendar service without requiring any formal performance appraisal.

D.Four years of probationary internship (estágio probatório) followed by a unanimous administrative council vote.

Explanation: Under Article 41 of the 1988 Federal Constitution, servants appointed to effective positions by public examination acquire stability after three years of effective service. Furthermore, § 4º of Article 41 establishes that mandatory approval in a special performance appraisal (avaliação especial de desempenho) conducted by a designated committee is an indispensable condition for acquiring stability.

10Under Law No. 8.112/1990 (Art. 130), what is the maximum statutory duration of a disciplinary suspension (suspensão) that can be applied to a federal civil servant?

A.30 days

B.90 days

C.60 days

D.120 days

Explanation: Article 130 of Law No. 8.112/1990 explicitly provides that the penalty of suspension (suspensão) shall be applied in cases of reincidence in faults punished with warning (advertência) or violation of specific statutory prohibitions, and shall not exceed 90 (ninety) days.

What is the organizational structure of the Ministério Público da União (MPU)?

Under Brazilian Archival Law (Lei nº 8.159/1991), administrative documents pass through three lifecycle phases: 1) Current Archive (Arquivo Corrente / 1ª idade) for active, frequently consulted documents; 2) Intermediate Archive (Arquivo Intermediário / 2ª idade) for documents with reduced consultation frequency awaiting their retention period or final destination; and 3) Permanent Archive (Arquivo Permanente / 3ª idade) for historical, scientific, or evidential records that are imprescriptible, inalienable, and can never be destroyed.
