Judge André Nabarrete Neto, of the TRF-3 (Federal Regional Court of the 3rd region), overturned on Tuesday (29) the injunction which suspended the right of former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to security guards and drivers paid by the Federal Governement. With the decision, Lula's benefits will be maintained.
Earlier, President Michel Temer had ordered the enforcement of the legal decision which determined immediate suspension of the benefits to which Lula was entitled.
The decision resulted from a request from lawyer Rubens Gatti Nunes, national coordinator of the party Movimento Brasil Livre - MBL (Free Brazil Movement).
