Question 1

Regarding the iterative path of crime (iter criminis) and the doctrine of criminal attempt under Article 14, II of the Brazilian Penal Code, which of the following statements is correct?

Acts of preparation (atos preparatórios) are generally punishable per se even if they do not constitute autonomous offenses, provided the perpetrator's subjective intent is unequivocally proven. An attempted offense (crime tentado) requires the commencement of execution (início dos atos executórios) and non-consummation due to circumstances independent of the perpetrator's will, punishable with the penalty of the consummated crime reduced by one to two thirds. Desistência voluntária (voluntary desistment) and arrependimento eficaz (effective repentance) maintain the attempt liability but mandate a statutory reduction of the penalty by two thirds. Arrependimento posterior (posterior repentance) applies to all crimes committed with violence or grave threat, provided full restitution of property occurs before the formal criminal indictment is received.

Correct Answer:

An attempted offense (crime tentado) requires the commencement of execution (início dos atos executórios) and non-consummation due to circumstances independent of the perpetrator's will, punishable with the penalty of the consummated crime reduced by one to two thirds.

Question 2

Under Articles 23, 24, and 25 of the Brazilian Penal Code governing causes of exclusion of illegality (excludentes de ilicitude), legitimate defense (legítima defesa) is legally characterized by:

Sacrificing an innocent third party's legal interest to preserve one's own superior right in the face of an inevitable and non-provoked present danger. Using moderate means to repel an unjust aggression, whether current or imminent, directed against one's own rights or the rights of another person. Executing administrative orders issued by a superior hierarchical authority, even when manifestly illegal, under strict obedience doctrine. Acting under irresistible moral coercion where the perpetrator retains full knowledge of typicality but lacks culpability.

Correct Answer:

Using moderate means to repel an unjust aggression, whether current or imminent, directed against one's own rights or the rights of another person.

Question 3

Regarding the differentiation between active corruption (corrupção ativa, Art. 333 CP) and passive corruption (corrupção passiva, Art. 317 CP), which of the following principles reflects Brazilian criminal doctrine and jurisprudence?

Passive corruption requires bilateral agreement; if the private citizen refuses the official's solicitation, no crime is consummated by the public official. A public official who merely solicits an undue advantage for themselves in connection with their official duties consummates passive corruption as a formal crime, regardless of whether the citizen accepts or delivers the advantage. Active corruption is a material crime that is only perfected when the public servant effectively executes or omits the demanded official act. Solicitation of an undue advantage accompanied by an explicit threat of physical harm constitutes active corruption rather than extortion.

Correct Answer:

A public official who merely solicits an undue advantage for themselves in connection with their official duties consummates passive corruption as a formal crime, regardless of whether the citizen accepts or delivers the advantage.

Question 4

In the crime of culpable peculation (peculato culposo, Article 312, § 2º of the Brazilian Penal Code), what is the legal consequence if the negligent public servant completely repairs the financial damage prior to the rendering of an unappealable final criminal judgment (sentença irrecorrível)?

The penalty is reduced by half by statutory mandate. The criminal action is converted into a civil indemnity proceeding with no penal consequences. Punibility is extinguished (extingue-se a punibilidade) by operation of Article 312, § 3º of the Penal Code. The conduct remains punishable as an administrative infraction but requires mandatory community service.

Correct Answer:

Punibility is extinguished (extingue-se a punibilidade) by operation of Article 312, § 3º of the Penal Code.

Question 5

Under the Disarmament Statute (Estatuto do Desarmamento - Lei nº 10.826/2003), how does Brazilian criminal law distinguish between illegal possession (posse irregular) and illegal carrying (porte ilegal) of a permitted-use firearm?

Possession refers to maintaining the firearm strictly inside one's residence or workplace (if the titular owner or legal manager), whereas carrying involves keeping or transporting it outside those premises without authorization. Possession applies only to disassembled firearms, whereas carrying requires the weapon to be loaded and immediately ready to fire. Possession is punishable with reclusion, whereas carrying constitutes a misdemeanor subject only to a simple fine. Carrying is restricted to security personnel, while private citizens may only be charged with possession regardless of geographical location.

Correct Answer:
