agree  Mark Robertson: Subject to the caveat that the opinion is unlikely to have been written by the Attorney General and was most probably written by a member of the AG's Dept. We also do not know the nature of the proceedings.

disagree  Mark Robertson: 1. Seria necessário explicitar que o advogado/procurador representa e é funcionário do estado. 2. Na UK o Estado é muitas vezes representado por advogados profissionais livres. Por isso, não é assim tão óbvio à vista do cliente.
16 hrs
  -> Thanks for the suggestion, but I pick the explanations that make more sense to me. Apparently, you ignored Aulete’s definition. Doesn’t it say “Advogado do Estado”? Obviously, he/she is a state employee! No need to explain the obvious.

disagree  ulissescarvalho: Concordo com o Mark.

  -> Pois você também está equivocado. Está explícito na descriçào que é advogado do Estado.

Bra.: parecer da procuradoria
gen.: Counsel's Opinion; Counsel Legal Team's Opinion


Explanation:
Perhaps not enough context to tell whether this is individual, grass-roots or state level cf. E+W and Caribbean state-level: Attorney-General's Reference for an opinion of the court of appeal when a case is pereceived to have been wrongly decided or the sentence over-lenient.

England + Wales: opinion on the law vs. advice on evidence, alhtough the two tend to get mixed up when Instructing Solicitors brief a Barrister to 'advise on the case'.



Example sentence(s):
  • Where a person tried on indictment has been acquitted (whether on all or part of the indictment), the Attorney‐General may, under s 36(1) of the Criminal Justice Act 1972, seek the opinion of the Court of Appeal on a point of law which has arisen.
  • An Attorney General Reference (AG Ref) is an appeal by the prosecution from the Crown Court to the Court of Appeal when they believe a sentence does not reflect the seriousness of the crime or on a point of law. It could end up with an increased sentence.

disagree  Mark Robertson: Use of the definite article shows that the opinion was issued by the Public Prosecutor/Attorney General's Office depending on the nature of the proceedings.
