A State Governor enacts a state law that imposes new federal criminal sanctions for environmental offenses committed within state conservation units. The Federal Council of the Brazilian Bar Association (CFOAB) intends to challenge the constitutionality of this enactment before the Federal Supreme Court (STF). What is the appropriate concentrated constitutional review mechanism and jurisdictional standing rule?

Ação Declaratória de Constitucionalidade (ADC), because CFOAB must demonstrate controversial federal judicial divergence regarding state legislative authority. Ação Direta de Inconstitucionalidade (ADI), since CFOAB possesses universal procedural standing (legitimado universal) without needing to demonstrate thematic pertinence between the challenged norm and its institutional purposes. Arguição de Descumprimento de Preceito Fundamental (ADPF), given that state environmental statutes can only be contested subsidiarily after exhaustion of ordinary remedies. Recurso Extraordinário com Repercussão Geral, as direct constitutional actions against state legislation cannot be initiated by representative non-governmental councils.

Correct Answer:

Ação Direta de Inconstitucionalidade (ADI), since CFOAB possesses universal procedural standing (legitimado universal) without needing to demonstrate thematic pertinence between the challenged norm and its institutional purposes.
