A decision detailed in an order by the director of the CEJ reveals an incident involving the premature dissemination of exam content by a student before a scheduled evaluation. The exam, intended for future judges, was compromised when an email containing the phrase “violence only subtraction contest theft,” which mirrored the exam’s central theme, was sent roughly an hour prior to the start.
This occurrence on June 12 has prompted the rescheduling of the test to the upcoming Monday, June 23, with the Public Prosecutor’s Office set to investigate the breach.
The exam required the drafting of a judicial sentence concerning an act of violence linked with theft, coinciding with the information shared by the student’s email, as noted in a document signed by Judge Fernando Vaz Ventura, the CEJ’s director.
Following consultations with the course coordinator and other faculty, the decision was made to annul the test because the breach of confidentiality compromised the evaluation’s integrity, despite the identities of those involved not being definitively known.
The leadership also concluded that the nature of the information leak precluded a fair assessment of all participants in the 41st course, thus canceling examinations for both judicial magistrature and the Public Prosecutor’s Office tracks.
The cancellation was executed urgently without prior consultations to meet the legal and regulatory deadlines for subsequent evaluation procedures, as explained in the CEJ’s order.
