Abstract

Abstract:The current 2008 Constitution creates the Constitutional Court by eting the Constitutional Court referred to in the 1998 Magna Carta, amending and expanding constitutional powers and actions. The Extraordinary Protection Action is the newest and most important judicial guarantee, it makes known to us the violations of constitutional rights by the judicial bodies provided that the decisions in question are executed and that all the ordinary and extraordinary remedies provided for in the procedural rules have been exhausted. The study of the judgments on the Extraordinary Action for the Protection of Ecuador allows us to know the effect generated in Ecuadorian Procedural Law, as well as to have statistics of how feasible and recurring its applicability has been, to have an overview of the background that led to this constitutional guarantee, identifying the rights violated, determining the level of interpretation, argumentation and weighting applied by constitutional judges.
