His innauguration marked the completion of the process of transition towards full democracy. First president impeached by Congress due to corruption. In accordance with the Constitution, was suspended from office for 180 days upon approval of the charges of impeachment by the Chamber of Deputies on [[2. oktober]] [[1992]]. On [[29. december]] [[1992]], the final day of the proceedings of his trial of impeachment, when the Plenary of the Federal Senate was in session as a Court of impeachment, Collor´s attorney made public an instrument by which the suspended president resigned the presidency. The trial of impeachment then immediately adjourned, and immediately the Congress proceeded to meet in joint session twice, so as to formally take notice of the instrument of resignation, whereupon it took effect, and then to innaugurate Vice-president Itamar Franco as President. Franco was already acting as President since Collor´s suspension. On the same date, the Senate resumed as a Court of Impeachment, and decided that the resignation of the president could not block a trial of impeachment that had already started. On the night of the same date, Collor was found guilty of the charges of impeachment, and was thus prevented from holding any public office for eight years.
