A.The STJ is composed of a minimum of 33 Ministers, appointed by the President of the Republic after approval by an absolute majority of the Federal Senate, chosen from Brazilians aged between 35 and 70 years of notable legal knowledge and unblemished reputation.

B.The STJ is composed of exactly 11 Ministers, appointed by the President of the Republic from among native-born Brazilian citizens of notable legal knowledge after approval by the Chamber of Deputies.

C.The STJ is composed of 27 Ministers appointed by competitive public examination, distributed equally among federal judges, state magistrates, and public defenders.

D.The STJ is composed of 21 Ministers appointed by the National Council of Justice (CNJ) through a direct secret ballot among career appellate judges.

Explanation: Pursuant to Article 104 of CF/88 (as amended by EC nº 122/2022), the Superior Tribunal de Justiça is composed of a minimum of 33 Ministers (mínimo de trinta e três Ministros). They are appointed by the President of the Republic after approval by the absolute majority of the Federal Senate, chosen from Brazilian citizens aged between 35 and 70 years with notable legal knowledge (notável saber jurídico) and unblemished reputation (reputação ilibada), divided according to the constitutional quotas (1/3 TRFs, 1/3 TJs, and 1/3 lawyers and public prosecutors alternately).

2Under Article 105, item I, sub-item 'a', of CF/88, which judicial body possesses exclusive original constitutional jurisdiction to process and judge State Governors (Governadores dos Estados e do Distrito Federal) for common criminal offenses (crimes comuns)?

A.The Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) in its Plenary session.

B.The Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ) through its Corte Especial.

C.The Tribunal de Justiça of the respective state where the criminal conduct occurred.

D.The Tribunal Regional Federal (TRF) of the corresponding federal judicial region.

Explanation: Under Article 105, I, 'a', of CF/88, the STJ has original jurisdiction to prosecute and judge, in common crimes, the Governors of the States and the Federal District. Pursuant to the Regimento Interno do STJ (RISTJ), this criminal competence is exercised by the Corte Especial (Special Court), comprising the 15 most senior Ministers of the Tribunal.

3Regarding the original criminal jurisdiction of the Superior Tribunal de Justiça over appellate judges (Desembargadores) of State Courts of Justice (TJs) and Federal Regional Courts (TRFs), what does Article 105, I, 'a', of CF/88 establish?

A.The STJ has original jurisdiction to process and judge Desembargadores of TJs and TRFs exclusively in common crimes, while crimes of responsibility are tried by the State Legislative Assemblies.

B.The STJ has original jurisdiction to process and judge Desembargadores of TJs and TRFs in both common crimes and crimes of responsibility (crimes de responsabilidade).

C.Desembargadores of TJs are judged by the STJ in common crimes, but Desembargadores of TRFs are judged directly by the STF.

D.The STJ only judges Desembargadores if the crime involves misappropriation of federal public funds exceeding 100 minimum wages.

Explanation: Article 105, I, 'a', of CF/88 explicitly provides that the STJ has original jurisdiction to prosecute and judge, in both common crimes and crimes of responsibility (nos crimes comuns e de responsabilidade), the judges of the Tribunais Regionais Federais, Tribunais Regionais Eleitorais, Tribunais Regionais do Trabalho, and Desembargadores of the Tribunais de Justiça of the States and the Federal District.

4A federal public servant wishes to file a Mandado de Segurança against an administrative act performed directly by a Minister of State (Ministro de Estado). According to Article 105, I, 'b', of CF/88, which court has original competence to adjudicate this petition?

A.The Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ).

B.The Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF).

C.The Tribunal Regional Federal da 1ª Região (TRF-1).

D.The Federal District Court (Vara Federal da Seção Judiciária do Distrito Federal).

Explanation: Article 105, I, 'b', of CF/88 establishes that the STJ has original jurisdiction to process and judge Mandados de Segurança and Habeas Data against acts of Ministers of State (Ministros de Estado), Commanders of the Navy, Army, and Air Force, or against acts of the STJ itself. Such actions are judged by the Primeira Seção (for administrative/public law matters) or the Corte Especial depending on the subject matter.

5When a Habeas Corpus petition is denied (denegado) in a single or final instance by a Tribunal Regional Federal (TRF) or a State Tribunal de Justiça (TJ), what is the appropriate constitutional remedy to bring the matter directly to the STJ?

A.Recurso Ordinário Constitucional (ROC em Habeas Corpus) under Article 105, II, 'a', of CF/88.

B.Recurso Especial (REsp) based exclusively on divergence of jurisprudence under Article 105, III, 'c'.

C.Reclamação Constitucional under Article 105, I, 'f', of CF/88.

D.Agravo de Instrumento under Article 1015 of the CPC/2015.

Explanation: Pursuant to Article 105, II, 'a', of CF/88, the STJ is constitutionally competent to judge, on ordinary appeal (em recurso ordinário), Habeas Corpus decided in a single or last instance by Federal Regional Courts or by State/DF Courts of Justice when the decision is denegatória (denying the writ).

6Under Article 105, II, 'b', of CF/88, the Superior Tribunal de Justiça judges on ordinary appeal (Recurso Ordinário Constitucional - RMS) Mandados de Segurança decided by TRFs or TJs under which specific condition?

A.Whenever the Mandado de Segurança was decided in single instance by TRFs or TJs and the final decision was denegatória (denial of the order).

B.Whenever the Mandado de Segurança was granted (concessiva) in second instance by a state collegiate panel.

C.Only when the amount in controversy exceeds 500 minimum wages and the decision was unanimous.

D.In all civil actions regardless of whether the decision was rendered in single or appellate instance.

Explanation: Under Article 105, II, 'b', of CF/88, the STJ judges on ordinary appeal 'the mandados de segurança decided in single instance by the Federal Regional Courts or by the courts of the States, the Federal District and Territories, when the decision is denegatória'. If the writ was granted (concedido), the appropriate remedy for the losing authority or public entity is a Recurso Especial (REsp) or Recurso Extraordinário (RE), not a Recurso Ordinário.

7A legal dispute arises between the Republic of France (a foreign State) and the Municipality of Santos (a Brazilian municipality) regarding municipal port taxes. The federal district judge in Santos renders a final judgment on the merits. According to CF/88 Arts. 109, II, and 105, II, 'c', how is an appeal against this first-instance sentence processed?

A.The appeal is an ordinary appeal (Recurso Ordinário) filed directly from the Federal District Judge to the Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ), bypassing the TRF entirely.

B.The appeal is an Apelação Cível judged by the Tribunal Regional Federal da 3ª Região (TRF-3).

C.The appeal must be submitted directly to the Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) via Recurso Extraordinário.

D.The first-instance decision is unappealable in Brazilian courts due to foreign sovereign immunity.

Explanation: Pursuant to Article 109, II, of CF/88, federal judges are competent to process and judge in first instance causes between a foreign State or international organization and a Municipality or person resident in Brazil. Under Article 105, II, 'c', of CF/88, final decisions in these causes are appealed directly to the STJ via Recurso Ordinário (ROC), completely bypassing the TRF.

8According to Article 105, item III, sub-item 'a', of the Federal Constitution of 1988, a Recurso Especial (REsp) may be filed before the STJ against decisions rendered in single or final instance by TRFs or TJs when the appealed decision:

A.Is contrary to a treaty or federal law, or denies its effectiveness (contrariar tratado ou lei federal, ou negar-lhes vigência).

B.Declares the unconstitutionality of a federal statute in concentrated judicial review.

C.Directly violates the literal text of the Federal Constitution of 1988.

D.Contrasts with an administrative ordinance issued by a municipal mayor.

Explanation: Article 105, III, 'a', of CF/88 provides that the STJ may judge on Recurso Especial causes decided in single or final instance by TRFs or TJs when the appealed decision 'contraria tratado ou lei federal, ou negar-lhes vigência'. Direct violation of the Federal Constitution is the domain of Recurso Extraordinário to the STF (Art. 102, III, 'a').

9Constitutional Amendment nº 45/2004 altered the distribution of appellate jurisdiction between the STF and STJ. Following EC nº 45/2004, what is the precise scope of Article 105, III, 'b', of CF/88 for interposing a Recurso Especial before the STJ?

A.When the appealed decision upholds an act of local government contested against federal law (julgar válido ato de governo local contestado em face de lei federal).

B.When the appealed decision upholds a local statute (lei local) contested in face of federal law.

C.When the appealed decision declares a federal statute invalid in face of an international convention.

D.When the appealed decision refuses to apply a binding precedent (Súmula Vinculante) of the STF.

Explanation: EC nº 45/2004 transferred the hypothesis of upholding a 'lei local contestada em face de lei federal' to the jurisdiction of the STF under Article 102, III, 'd', of CF/88 (Recurso Extraordinário). Consequently, Article 105, III, 'b', of CF/88 now applies strictly when the appealed decision 'julgar válido ato de governo local contestado em face de lei federal' (validity of a local administrative *act*, not local *law*).

10Under Article 105, III, 'c', of CF/88, a Recurso Especial is admissible when the appealed decision confers an interpretation on federal law that diverges from that given by another court (dissídio jurisprudencial). Which of the following courts CANNOT serve as a valid paradigm (acórdão paradigma) for establishing such divergence before the STJ?

A.A Turma or Seção of the very same court of origin that rendered the appealed decision (jurisprudência interna do mesmo tribunal).

B.Another State Tribunal de Justiça (TJ) interpreting the same federal statute in an identical factual scenario.

C.Another Tribunal Regional Federal (TRF) deciding a conflicting interpretation of a federal decree-law.

D.A Turma or Seção of the Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ) itself.

Explanation: According to Súmula 13/STJ ('A divergência entre julgados do mesmo tribunal não enseja recurso especial'), internal divergence within the same court of origin cannot support a Recurso Especial under alínea 'c'. Internal divergences must be resolved through internal court mechanisms (such as uniformização de jurisprudência or IRDR), whereas REsp under alínea 'c' requires divergence between different courts (outro tribunal) or the STJ.
