Reflexões acerca da Lei de Improbidade Administrativao prazo prescricional aplicável aos empregados públicos da Petrobras que exercem cargos comissionados na Companhia

Resumo

This article aims to analyze what would be the statute of limitations applicable to Civil Public Actions of Administrative Improbity against public officials who are former Petrobras' public employees and also held commissioned positions in the Company. The controversy over the definition of the limitation period that must be applied to such agents relies on the uncertainty about which position should remain, whether public employment or the commissioned position, since the provisions of Law No. 8,229 of 1991 (Administrative Improbity Law) does not set forth solutions for this specific situation. The controversy will be discussed through the analysis of the decisions regarding the limitation period applied in Civil Public Actions of Administrative Improbity that have as defendants’ individuals in the abovementioned situation (former Petrobras’ public employees who held commissioned positions in the Company). The article defends the application of the five-year limitation period due to the understanding that the commissioned position is the one that must predominate. However, the article also accepts the possibility of the prevalence of the public employment (as well as the decisions rendered by the Federal Regional Court of Appeals of the 4th Region, responsible for the administrative improbity actions analyzed herein), situation in which it argues for the analogical application of the five-year limitation period.
