Estudio de las sentencias sobre la acción extraordinaria de protección en el Ecuador

Abstract

Abstract:The purpose of this work is to contribute to the study of the jurisdictional guarantee called "extraordinary protection action", instituted in the new Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador in 2008, in order to protect constitutional rights and due process, that are violated by the action or omission on the part of the respective judges in making decisions regarding the causes placed in their charge. The extraordinary protection action is a remedy that is presented as a last resort, when all ordinary remedies have been exhausted, and whenever there is a final order or an enforceable judgment, the objective of the action is the protection of constitutionally recognized rights; and, in the case of having been violated, what is intended is the total reparation of the damage caused to a fundamental right, thus complying with the fundamental rights enshrined in the constitution.
