Abstract

This text, which is an adaptation of an legal opinion, deals with the definition of the legal nature of the Itaipu Hydroelectric Power Plant based on the nature of the services provided, the legal regime to which it is bound, and its relationship with the economic market, in order to examine its effects on the establishment of the statute of limitations for lawsuits brought against it, especially with regard to the possibility of applying the five-year statute of limitations provided for lawsuits brought against the Public Treasury. The jurisprudence of the Superior Court of Justice is also analyzed.
