Preferencias académicas de los estudiantes de la carrera de Derecho y su vinculación con los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) a través del estudio de sentencias

Abstract

Abstract: This research focuses on SDG 16, which seeks to promote peaceful, fair and inclusive societies, facilitating access to justice and building efficient and accountable institutions at all levels. In this context, the double standard and its application in Ecuadorian legal practice are examined, analyzing Article 76, literal m, numeral 7 of the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador. This principle allows a party dissatisfied with the ruling of a court of first instance to have the right to file an appeal before a higher court. Through the appeal, specific aspects of the decision can be questioned, such as errors in the interpretation of the law or incorrect procedures. To illustrate this, judgment number 2913-19EP/22 has been studied, which presents a unique situation, since only the court of second instance declared the defendant guilty. However, the appeal prevented the review of the facts, which resulted in the violation of the aforementioned article. The methods applied in the investigation correspond to the inductive-deductive, descriptive and exegetic methods.
