Regarding the original criminal jurisdiction of the Superior Tribunal de Justiça over appellate judges (Desembargadores) of State Courts of Justice (TJs) and Federal Regional Courts (TRFs), what does Article 105, I, 'a', of CF/88 establish?

The STJ has original jurisdiction to process and judge Desembargadores of TJs and TRFs exclusively in common crimes, while crimes of responsibility are tried by the State Legislative Assemblies. The STJ has original jurisdiction to process and judge Desembargadores of TJs and TRFs in both common crimes and crimes of responsibility (crimes de responsabilidade). Desembargadores of TJs are judged by the STJ in common crimes, but Desembargadores of TRFs are judged directly by the STF. The STJ only judges Desembargadores if the crime involves misappropriation of federal public funds exceeding 100 minimum wages.

Correct Answer:

The STJ has original jurisdiction to process and judge Desembargadores of TJs and TRFs in both common crimes and crimes of responsibility (crimes de responsabilidade).
