| Summary: | This article examines critically the official narrative about the role of the judiciary during the authoritarian regime of 1964-1985, built by the memory spaces of the Brazilian common justice. From primary sources accessed in court files, specifically in the spaces created for the dissemination of institutional memory, collates the reality of the period, of serious human rights violations and disruption of institutional normality, with narratives produced by institutional spaces on the Judiciary, about the period. The laudatory tone and the absence of references to political legal framework predominate in these fragments produced by the institution. |
