 The proposal to establish fixed terms for justices of the Brazilian Supreme Court has recently returned to public debate following statements by President Lula presenting tenure reform as an institutional response to the Court’s current difficulties. The idea resurfaces cyclically whenever the Court makes mistakes. Yet the length of justices’ tenure is neither the central empirical nor the normative factor explaining today’s deficits. The possible paths forward depend far more on internal institutional corrections than on constitutional reforms imposed from outside.
