STF's Flávio Dino Orders São Paulo Cemeteries to Revert Funeral Prices to Pre-Privatization Levels Following March 2023 Changes
Nov 24, 2024, 06:30 PM
Flávio Dino, a minister of Brazil's Supreme Federal Court (STF), has mandated that funeral service prices in São Paulo be reverted to their pre-privatization levels. This decision affects privatized cemeteries in the city, which had previously increased their fees following the privatization that occurred in March 2023. Dino's ruling comes amid concerns of significant violations related to the pricing practices of these cemeteries. The order is part of a broader legal action supported by the Brazilian Communist Party (PCdoB), which has been vocal about the impact of privatization on funeral service costs. In some cases, such as in Belo Horizonte, the cost of a simple burial plan can reach R$ 50,000. The STF's decision will be reviewed in a virtual plenary session, indicating the ongoing legal scrutiny surrounding the privatization of essential services.
