    Guaranteeing respect for the rights of procedural subjects, as well as ensuring compliance with the guarantees of due process, are one of the fundamental pillars that the Ecuadorian State provides among its plurinational and multicultural principles. In turn, criminal law is the body in charge of carrying out the legal order, each time an irregularity or criminal offense occurs with the intention of protecting the legal security of society. Part of this safeguard is to enforce the different legal mechanisms, so that when a trial is used; There remains reliable and convincing evidence of having used due process, in cases where there is a need to punish a person, that it is proven that he has committed a criminal offense. The objective of the following Degree Work is to diagnose the general characteristics of due process and analyze the proportionality of the penalties in terms of their application, in cases related to the driving of vehicles in a state of intoxication, where it is sought to detect the possibility of the existence of a legal vacuum that violates human rights and, respect for the free movement of whoever commits the crime or infraction. It is a mixed investigation, directed towards the iterative or integrative, under the documentary modality, explanatory-descriptive and correlational field. The results of the investigation indicate that there is a disproportionality in the sanctions or penalties that arise from the violation of driving vehicles while intoxicated, typified in the Comprehensive Organic Penal Code (COIP), especially when compared with other criminal offenses of higher magnitude and are sanctioned by the same COIP in a non-proportional way, affirming among the conclusions the existence of a legal vacuum, with respect to these penalties that a judge sanctions, leaving aside for the legislators, the possibility of considering what is known as the abstract penalty, to measure in a coherent, suitable, necessary and weighted manner the possibility that the sanction is commensurate or proportional to the magnitude of the violation, without neglecting the damage to third parties that could be caused.

    Prisión preventiva y el principio de proporcionalidad
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Posgrado, Maestría en Derecho penal y Procesal penal, 2019-07) Serrano Abraham, Maria Eugenia; Benavides Benalcázar, Merck Milko
    In Ecuadorian legislation, as in the international treaties and agreements ratified by Ecuador, preventive detention is a precautionary measure of a personal and exceptional nature, because it restricts the right to freedom of the person. The Organic Code of Comprehensive Criminal COIP, provides for preventive detention under Article 534, establishing the requirements that must concur for it to be ordered, these being: elements of conviction that demonstrate the crime for which it is being charged, elements on intervention the defendant, they must be clear and precise, evidence to justify that the other precautionary measures are insufficient to guarantee the appearance in the trial of the defendant and that the crime is punishable by a penalty of more than one year. Likewise, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights has pointed out that it is important that alternative personal measures be rationalized, since the indiscriminate application of preventive detention contributes to increasing the levels of prison overcrowding, a feature that is characteristic of Latin American countries. Precisely, the principle of proportionality established in the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador is the ideal mechanism that allows the judge to impose a precautionary measure observing due process. This study addresses the importance of the effective application of this principle, so that preventive detention meets a true legal nature and does not become a prejudgment or an anticipated penalty.
