Oficiais de Justiça avaliadores strengthen their presence at UIHJ
The president Lopes Franco convened UIHJ to participate at the conference that will be held from 6 to 11 September 2005 in Maceio
A strengthened co-operation
With the help of Vera Pinheiro Dos Santos, then president of the Rio Association of Assessment officers, Brazil hasn't stopped to mark its presence at UIHJ. Several seminars have been organised in Rio, one of which of international dimension with the participation of a group of experts from around the world (5 and 6 October 2000).
Since the federal congress of Gramado, in October 2004, ties between UIHJ and the Assessment officers have still be re-enforced. Now, the Federal Association has voted its adhesion at the UIHJ (FENASSOJAF). In this matter, the involvement of the president Lopes Franco has proved essential.
A country at progress
Let's remember that the assessment officers are the civil servants who are in charge with the collection of the State debts.
Nevertheless, our colleagues share the same concerns as liberal judicial officers, even if a change in their status is not yet at stakes.
Brazil is a great country which has embarked on a large series of reforms. The enforcement system will change in the future. A draft law reform mentions the creation of the function of Judge assistant, which is not compatible with the function of assessment officers who do not have a similar recognition and who turn towards the UIHJ to promote their demands at the federal authorities.
Our colleagues protest against acts of violence perpetrated against them and that make several victims each year.
A conference will be held from 6to 11 September 2005 in Maceio. The president Lopes Franco convened UIHJ to participate at the conference.
