Motivación en las sentencias emitidas por los jueces de primer nivel en Ecuador

Abstract

Abstract: This research study aims to analyze the precise relationship between the "Motivations of Judgments Issued by First-Level Judges in Ecuador," specifically regarding the obligation of judges to explain the reasons and legal grounds supporting their decisions or rulings. It is important to note that there are means of challenging these decisions, whether through appeals or by utilizing horizontal remedies. The promissory note is a commercial law instrument, and its current legal validity and collection procedures are being examined. This includes addressing the document's requirements, including those for judicial enforcement and the debtor's potential defenses. Proper motivation refers primarily to the quality of the reasons, while sufficient motivation refers to the minimum conditions that a clear and concise argument must contain. Key issues would include the legitimacy of the promissory note holder, the existence of defects, the statute of limitations for collection, and the viability of legal versus extrajudicial actions.
