Ministério Público (Eleitoral)

Portuguese to English Law/Patents Law (general)
A falta do ressarcimento, no prazo estipulado, implicará a comunicação do fato ao Ministério Público Eleitoral, pelo órgão de controle interno.

Recebida a denúncia do Ministério Público, a Justiça Eleitoral apreciará o feito no prazo de trinta dias, aplicando aos infratores pena de multa correspondente ao dobro das despesas, duplicada a cada reiteração de conduta.

What can be the counterparts of Ministério Público and Ministério Público Eleitoral in English-speaking countries?

Discussion

Non-ProZ.com Nov 22, 2004:
To my way of thinking, Minist�rio P�blico and Minist�rio P�blico Eleitoral can roughly correspond to 'Ministry of Public Administration' and 'Election Administration Commission' respectively.
Might I be right?

Electoral Prosecutor's Office

The references are all taken from Latin American sites. However I don't think English-speaking countries have an institution similar to the Ministério Público Eleitoral in Brazil. The suggestion above may give an idea of its functions.
