Understanding Antijuricidad: Definition and Defense

Law4.6 KB

Antijuricidad: Definition and Types

Antijuricidad refers to typical behavior that harms or endangers a legal right and is not authorized by law. There are two types of antijuricidad:

  • Material Antijuricidad: Focuses on the social harm caused by the behavior.
  • Formal Antijuricidad: Focuses on the behavior's contradiction with civil mandates and prohibitions, specifically the absence of express statutory authorization (justification) for the harmful conduct.

Absence of Illegality

Legal grounds for justification generally involve:

  • Lack of interest (e.g., Section 141).
  • The existence of an overriding interest (e.g., defense of necessity, duty, legitimate exercise of a position, authority, or office, and failure of just cause).

Sources of Legal Interpretation

  • Jurisprudence (e)

    Jurisprudence is the wise interpretation of the law by judges when applying legal norms to specific cases submitted to their jurisdiction. Today, jurisprudence is generally not considered a primary source of law but rather a crucial legal institution for interpreting existing legal norms.

Administrative Act Validity: Void vs. Voidable Defects

Law2.79 KB

Administrative actions are considered vitiated, and therefore invalid, when their components fail to meet the requirements established by law for their validity. There are two main categories: void acts and voidable acts.

Void Acts (Article 62.1 of the LRJAPPAC)

Voidness is reserved for more serious defects, which include:

  • Acts that infringe upon constitutional rights and liberties (Articles 14 to 29 and 30.2).
  • Dictates issued by a manifestly incompetent organ due to subject matter or territory.
  • Acts having an impossible content (Example: an order of demolition for a building that does not exist).
  • Acts that establish a criminal offense or are issued as a result of one (e.g., a license granted through bribery).

Sources of Law: Constitution and Civil Code

Sources of Law: Constitution and Civil Code

In a technical legal sense, the term 'sources of law' refers to the various manifestations of law in a given system — that is, the different elements of a legal system, such as laws, decrees, judgments, legal custom, etc. It is not uncommon for the term 'source' to be used simultaneously in these two senses, and for references to the courts as a source or origin of the law.

For historical reasons, the listing of the various sources and their priority is set out in the Civil Code. However, the juridification of the Constitution in the twentieth century has made the Constitution progressively more decisive as a source, since it provides essential aspects for...

Special Labor Relations and Common Peculiarities

Depending on the activity or how it is performed, some labor relations are more special than others. Common examples include:
