ATLANTIC FOREST

22.03.2020 |

OC acts as amicus curiae in the records of Direct Action of Unconstitutionality (ADI) No. 6,446, reported by Justice Luiz Fux, through which the President of the Republic has requested the Federal Supreme Court to validate the order issued by the Minister of the Environment and to declare the nullity of the legal interpretation according to which the Atlantic Forest Act (a special law) prevails over the 2012 Forest Law. Six environmental organizations, five of which are members of OC, are acting as amici curiae. WWF and SOS Mata Atlântica coordinated the drafting of the petition.
