In Repetitive Appeal Topic 1,210, the STJ established an important precedent regarding the piercing of the corporate veil.
Nas relações civis e empresariais, a mera ausência de bens da empresa ou o encerramento irregular de suas atividades não autoriza, por si só, o alcance do patrimônio de sócios e administradores. Para tanto, é necessária a comprovação de abuso da personalidade jurídica, caracterizado por desvio de finalidade ou confusão patrimonial.
Even before this understanding was consolidated by the Court, founding partner Alexandre Sion had already addressed the issue in the article “From Brazil to Portugal: The Piercing of the Corporate Veil”, in discussing the Major and Minor theories and the different legal regimes for piercing the corporate veil under Brazilian law.
This recent precedent reinforces the timeliness and relevance of the discussion, offering an opportunity to revisit the issue in light of the STJ’s consolidated position.
