A Brazilian judge has blocked the appointment of ex-president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva as chief of staff to his successor, Dilma Rousseff.
According to BBC News, a federal judge issued an injunction saying there was a risk a federal judicial investigation could be derailed if Lula was a minister.
Under Brazilian law, cabinet members can only be investigated by the Supreme Court, not by federal courts.
Lula is under investigation for alleged money laundering.
