Abstract
This article seeks to analyze the reasons and consequences of the recent divergent judgments of the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice regarding the possibility, or lack thereof, of real property encumbered with fiduciary alienation being subject to seizure resulting from the execution of condominium expenses. For the development of this study, the Special Appeal No. 2036289/RS (2022/0344164-7), carried out by the 3rd Chamber, under the rapporteurship of Justice Nancy Andrighi, as well as the Special Appeal No. 2059278/SC, carried out by the 4th Chamber, under the rapporteurship of Justice Raul Araújo, will be analyzed.
