Will Bolsonaro be granted house arrest by the end of 2026?
Market Rules
This event predicts whether Jair Messias Bolsonaro will be legally allowed to serve a criminal sentence under house arrest by December 31, 2026. For this market, house arrest means a judicial order allowing the sentence to be served at home instead of in a prison facility. The Primary Designated Source (PDS) will be official judicial decisions issued by Brazilian courts.
If a competent Brazilian court issues a judicial order by December 31, 2026 allowing Jair Bolsonaro to serve a sentence under house arrest, this market will resolve to "Yes". Otherwise, it will resolve to "No". Convictions without an accompanying house-arrest order will not count. If judicial decisions are ambiguous, the Secondary Confirmation Mechanism (SCM) will rely on consistent reporting from major Brazilian news organizations. Resolution will reflect the substantive grant of house arrest, not sentencing discussions. If a definitive determination cannot be made, Futuur may cancel this market with a public explanation.
