What is Article 467 penalty (multa do art. 467)?
Also: multa do art. 467 · multa 467 · article 467 penalty
The article 467 penalty is a 50% increase on the uncontested severance amounts not paid at the first hearing. Unlike the article 477 penalty (delay beyond the 10-day deadline), this one sanctions the failure to pay in court what is uncontested.
The defense depends on recognizing and depositing the uncontested amount in time.
Observed grant pattern: about 45% of merits decisions on this award (base: real Labor Court cases) — lower because controversy removes the penalty.
