Before the Driver’s License Is Seized, the Organization That Has Not Been Paid Must Make Several Attempts to Contact the Deadbeat

The plenary of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), by a majority vote, authorized the enforcement of measures such as the seizure of the National Driver’s License (CNH) and the passport, as a way to compel the deadbeat to settle outstanding debts. Other measures included the suspension of the debtor’s right to vote.

One of the penalties is the disqualification from participating in public bids, contracts, and public competitions. However, there are a series of requirements that must be met before the penalties can be implemented. The ruling issued by the ministers states that, for the seizure to be legal, it must “not infringe on basic rights” and comply with “the criteria of proportionality and equity”.

Furthermore, food-related debts do not lead to the seizure of CNHs or passports, and professional drivers are also not affected. Check what happens to the deadbeat before their CNH can be confiscated.

These judgments were only put to a vote in a referendum of the Supreme Court.

In a recent ruling by the 20th Chamber of Private Law of the TJ-SP (São Paulo Court of Justice), which decided to freeze the driver’s license and passport of a deadbeat for, according to the court, having a high standard of living, it is a good illustration of this concept.

In this particular case, the creditor initiated an enforcement action, but after several attempts to collect the owed amount, there was no resolution.

The process further alleges that the deadbeat lives in a luxury condominium in São Paulo and that their monthly consumption costs do not match their inability to settle their debt. Additionally, the complaint states that the debtor owes a significant amount of money. After the court determined that the deadbeat is attempting to evade their responsibilities, the CNH was retained.
