| Description |
In 1992, Collor was charged with corruption and was impeached by the Congress. Under the Brazilian Constitution, an impeached president's powers are suspended for 180 days. As such, Franco served as acting president from October 1992 until Collor resigned on December 29, at which point he formally took office as president.
