Abstract:
Due to its legal nature, its purpose and the effect of the Decisions made following the review of the appeal in the interest of the law, we consider that the appeal in the interest of the law is not a remedy, since a judgment whose annulment, recasting or withdrawal to determine it. Moreover, in the trial in which the appeal is judged in the interest of the law, it is different from the one in which an appeal is pending. Despite the specificity of matter, there is no reason why, as in the criminal proceedings, the interest of the law should be considered an ―extraordinary way of attack Consequently, we come with the proposal to our legislator to make changes to the Code of Criminal Procedure so as to exclude appeal in the interest of the law in the matter of extraordinary remedies and to state that the appeal in the interest of the law is a procedural means of unification of judicial practice.
