, both were suspended due to a decision by the STJ to evaluate the points of discussion in the form of a repetitive appeal. In December 2024, the STJ judged the repetitive appeals to allow the application of a double penalty (administrative and judicial), establishing a thesis authorizing the imposition of injunctive relief and civil liability. At the moment, the União Comércio and CNT have filed motions for clarification to highlight various gaps and omissions identified in the judgment.

(ii) The company sued a competitor in the central-western region over the improper and unauthorized use of a variety of eucalyptus protected by intellectual property rights (cultivar) of the incorporated subsidiary Fibria. The prohibition on the cultivation of this biological asset by the competitor was protected by an injunction, which was confirmed in a judgment in favor of the Company, with the Company initiating the liquidation of the judgment. However, at the appeal stage and in an extended trial, there was a ruling against the Company recognizing a supposed incidental nullity of the cultivar, a decision that is currently subject to a motion for clarification. It should be noted that, in parallel, there is also a lawsuit in the Federal Court in which the competitor filed an action to annul the registration of the cultivar, but, to date, there has been no decision in this process determining the nullity or restricting the Company's right.
