La correcta estructuración y fundamentación del recurso extraordinario de casación en estricto cumplimiento de los casos previstos en el art. 268 del Código Orgánico General de Procesos.

Abstract

The appeal for annulment (casación) is an extraordinary recourse used to challenge judicial sentences based on incorrect interpretation or improper application of the law or binding precedents. It arises from conflicts of interest between the parties seeking a resolution. It is a technical and complex means of appeal that does not analyze facts or evidence, assuming that the lower court evaluated them correctly. The proper formulation from the preparation phase is crucial, but there is deficient knowledge in structuring and substantiating the recourse, resulting in a high rate of inadmitted appeals. In this regard, this research work addresses the importance of substantiating the appeal for annulment in Ecuadorian legislation and aims to analyze the reasons for the high rate of inadmissibility of this appeal before the National Court of Justice. Through qualitative research and the application of theoretical and empirical methods, the study will highlight the issue to argue for the relevance of a reform to Article 270, Section 2, of the COGEP.
