STF ministers favor plenary review of Bolsonaro's criminal appeal

Multiple STF ministers believe Bolsonaro's criminal review request should be decided by the full plenary rather than by rapporteur Kassio Nunes Marques, who was appointed by Bolsonaro. The defense seeks to annul a 27-year prison sentence for attempting to overthrow the state. This procedural stance signals institutional caution against perceived bias, though the plenary's substantive decision remains uncertain.
