On July 13-14, 2019, according to The Intercept and Congresso em Foco, messages would show that Dallagnol discussed creating an events company in which he would not appear as a partner, and estimated at about R$400,000 the net income from lectures and books in the previous year; the law prohibits prosecutors from managing companies.

On November 28, 2017 the CNMP unanimously denied an appeal by federal deputies Paulo Pimenta and Wadih Nemer (spelling on the CNMP page) against the closing of a complaint about Dallagnol's lectures, finding that lectures fall within the teaching permitted to members of the public prosecutor's office, that he did not deal with confidential matters, and that most of the money went to philanthropy.
