Social network X reported that it had sent this Friday (20) to the Federal Supreme Court (STF) the name of lawyer Rachel de Oliveira Villa Nova to act as the company’s legal representative in the country.
The shipment was made to comply with Minister Alexandre de Moraes’s order that gave the company 24 hours to prove the reactivation of the representative office in Brazil.
On Thursday (19), the Minister asked the company to send registration documents to the Commerce Council and prove the appointment of a lawyer to officially represent the company.
Last month, Moraes laid off X after the company closed its offices in Brazil, a mandatory requirement for any company operating in the country.
On August 17, billionaire Elon Musk, owner of the social network, announced the closure of the company’s headquarters in Brazil after the network was fined for refusing to comply with an order to delete the profiles of people investigated by the Court for publishing messages considered undemocratic.
