O Departamento Nacional de Infraestrutura de Transportes (Dnit) terá que pagar indenização por danos materiais para uma transportadora catarinense que teve a carga danificada em acidente ocorrido na BR-226 devido às más condições da rodovia. A 3ª Turma do Tribunal Regional Federal da 4ª Região (TRF4) negou, na última semana, recurso do órgão.
O acidente aconteceu em maio de 2013. O caminhão trafegava no Km 404, no município de Grajaú (MA), quando ao tentar desviar de um buraco na pista tombou, perdendo a carga de arroz, que foi saqueada por moradores locais.
A Data Mecânica ajuizou ação na 4ª Vara Federal de Criciúma (SC) contra o Dnit alegando que as péssimas condições da estrada teriam ocasionado o acidente e pedindo indenização por danos materiais. A ação foi julgada procedente, condenando o órgão ao pagamento de R$ 72.775,00.
O Dnit recorreu atribuindo a culpa pelo acidente ao motorista, que estaria dirigindo sem cautela. O órgão alegou também que os recibos levados aos autos pela empresa não discriminam o quanto foi gasto na manutenção do veiculo, mas apenas o que foi perdido em carga.
Para o desembargador federal Fernando Quadros da Silva, relator do caso, “é comprovado que o buraco na rodovia foi a causa direta e imediata para a ocorrência do acidente”. Segundo o desembargador, ficou configurada a responsabilidade do réu sobre a perda da carga, devendo ressarcir a autora.
Quanto aos danos no caminhão, o magistrado ressaltou que “cabe à parte autora demonstrar documentalmente o valor do dano material sofrido pelo conserto do veículo, bem como os lucros cessantes, não bastando para isso orçamentos sem data ou de oito meses após o acidente”, concluiu.

TM Law is highly qualified in litigation matters of the main areas of the corporate law, in which we approach in a few basic principles, as follows:
Events that threaten the companies, putting them in crisis, are rarely confined to a judicial or administrative litigation proceeding. Such events, that represent a great risk to the business, usually, in addition to a dispute, are exposed in the media, bringing immeasurable damages to the company.
In this regard, TM Law understands that the complexity of crisis events that threaten companies, should be dealt both within and outside of the processes, whether judicially or administratively, and dealt directly with the administrators (Board of Officers, Board of Directors, among others), and internal corporate teams, whether in Brazil or abroad, providing a strategical treatment in all fronts of the business crises.
In this sense, we assist our clients in addressing simultaneously with discrete and intelligent responses, all sides of corporate crises (judicial, administrative or media), minimizing its impacts whether they are related to finances, corporate image or to a dispute.
Dealt and identified as alternative ways to resolve conflicts, clearing the Judiciary, the Arbitration and Mediation are procedural models that are being commonly used in Brazil, providing celerity and efficiency in resolving disputes.
Those who choose to resolve their disputes through arbitration can enjoy several benefits. Among the main benefits, we can highlight the celerity to resolve the conflicts in a definitive way, allowing the sentence to be immediately enforced. Another important factor is that, other than a judge, the arbitrator is usually an expert and have specific expertise on the litigation subject, allowing the case to be better assessed. Moreover, the dispute can be resolved without publicly exposing those involved. Thus, the content will remain between the parties and the arbitrators that compose the court, which are subjected to professional secrecy, enabling confidentiality in all stages of the conflict resolution.
The mediation, other than arbitration, is characterized by being a non-litigious procedure. In this regard, with the help of the mediator, the parties seek to resolve the conflict together in order to reach a satisfactory outcome for both.
TM Law has extensive experience in representing our clients in arbitration and mediation procedures.
Regarding corporate governance and anti-corruption practices, TM Law conducts technical investigations and procedures in the administration and management of business, reaching all its boards (board of officer, board of directors, among others), in order to provide the adoption, implementation or even the review of policies of transparency, accountability, social and environmental development, ensuring to our clients greater credibility and boosting their market confidence, making them more competitive in its segment and more attractive for new investments, thus ensuring the sustainability of the businesses and the longevity of its operations.
Additionally, TM Law has a highly technical team capable to introduce compliance practices, transforming principles of corporate governance in staff actions.
In this regard, the adoption of a compliance program includes: the review of the entire tax return, accounting, operational information of the corporation, risk assessments, profitability and vulnerabilities assessments, to then develop methods and practical and specific solutions, to each type of company.
